Gunpowder, Fizzle, & Pop

Gunpowder, Fizzle, & Pop

Guy Fawkes was a Cath’lic yeoman –
Was he terrorist or hero ?
Gave us fireworks – what a show man !
Even bigger than Shakespeare, oh !
So are Cath’rine wheels an omen,
Making all the Papists fear ?
Though why are all the candles Roman ?
Or is that a nod to Nero ?
