The Black Sea
Green
Green
Green
As far as the eye can see
Like,
Green
Green clouds
Hugging the earth
And me
Sea
Sea
Sea
Rugged dangerous
Enveloping me
The People
The People
The People
Safe and secure in their own skin
Unique in pleasure
Happiness overflowing into me
Green Green
Sea Sea
The People The People
And me

A Child in Gaza
Dreaming of leaving
This rock above my
Head
Dreaming of leaving
The thought you are dead
Dreaming of leaving
Going back to when I
played here, running up
the path mama mama
kissing your sweet forehead
now motionless and
cold
Dreaming of leaving
Not wishing to go

On
People protest
Against dead bodies

Discovering their loved ones
Dead clothes

Sanitised by the news
The killing is not so awful
They plead

Nobody came…
Everyone’s a *UNT
They’re blaring out music
On a crowded bus
Chatting to friends
Until ears start to bleed
Everyone’s a CUN*

A Little Bird
He belted his little heart out
Same time every day
It lasted for hours and hours
But still…
She does not come.
I shouted out to the little bird
“Why not perch on another tree?”
“I was calling out to you…”
the little bird replied,
“To keep that smile on your face.”

Election
As poor as I am
I can still see the lies
Dripping down from posters
Larger than life
Each party vying for my eye line
Sides of the same dice
Hope, Fear
Progress, Strength
Hate, Together
Each rolling towards me
Saying anything I like …
A tannoy blurts out
Some nonsensical nonsense
flags are waving in the air
and the dumb have becom...
