Many a windbag

given a right good kicking.

Auntie’s headlines, written by talented people

with an awsome bent for creative writing,

create consent for anything, with their lies,

for genocide and ethnic cleansing, torture,

illegal invasion, theft of homes and land,

all at the expense of the British tax-payer,

(no, not the obscenely rich, they don’t give a damn!)

but the poorest, who can’t cough up for hospital beds,

N.B. I suppose I should make allowances for the Tommy Ten Names of this world, and admit that in the white heat of fascistic fervour, it is possible to confuse hamas with hummus…and gooodness knows what horrors might be inflicted by a beardy, muesli- eating sandal-wearing, Guardian-reading pacifist waving a bread stick around!

The Arabic يُكافِح means to struggle, and حُمُّص means hummus - not ...

The trouble with continually crying wolf

is that you end up being trampled

by the herd of elephants in the room,

you for too long ignored

and who will make of you an example;

like it or not, I’m a poet,

whether a good one

or a bad one’s

for you to decide;

but if there’s a line,

my task’s not to toe it,

but to write it,

to tell it out loud,

tell the truth ...

The UK Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, is believe it or not, a barrister; yet she is proposing to break the law with her dog-whistle of a bill.

So she has been forced to make the following admission, under section 19(1)(b) of the Human Rights Act 1998:

“I am unable to make a statement that, in my view, the provisions of the Illegal Migration Bill are compatible with the Convention rig...

I know that he’s lying,

He knows I know that he’s lying,

They know that he’s lying,

They know that I know that he’s lying,

They know that I know that they know that he’s lying,

I’ve not found any evidence that anyone is lying,

Because I’ve not looked for any evidence,

Why don’t I give a flying pig?

‘Cos this brown envelope’s big,

And he’s got that job at the Beeb.

Text post, and 'at work' :(

I'm on the airwaves @8.20pm Friday during the Harry Whittaker show - reading Mudland - although I did record the audio in a very creepy voice, I'm very sorry about that.  wish me luck!

My mind is calmed now 
Just rested today as music plays
The radio emitting nothing thoughts
chilled sounds of  instruments 
Tuned to songs and voices in melancholy talk

Creative mind can awaken now
As a rare creature from its cave
The dangers of crazed crowds
Far away from the this morning 
Sunday's best for breakfast time

6 Music BBC just beats away
A Welsh soft voice DJs to start ...

At a workspace in the reading room
Sits the youth engrossed in writing

In peripheral of mind and space
Onlook gravely the collected works
And weight of human history

Unrestrained by abstruse semiotic
Advances the uninducted
Through warnings of unheeded cipher
To pastures rarely trodden by
Adherents to the doctrine

Unheeding of imposing presence
Uninhibited by its stricture
The wo...
