Withdrawal Method (When Being Fucked)

 

There’s only twenty-seven

Where there used to be twenty-eight

Some of us don’t like it

Once he comes to hear or share 
He will enjoy to dream in a boat

Poem for Bob Crow (cheers W.H. Auden)

Stop all the docks, cut off the trains, 
Start the mariners striking, be still the cranes, 
Silence the busses and with muffled bullhorn 
Bring out the coffin, let the workers come. 

Let politicians circle, moaning overhead 
confessing on the airwaves, He Is RED, 
Put nooses round the white necks of the bosses, 
Let the riot policemen carry their o...
