I carry a heaviness
.jpg)
I’m
not talking about my weight.
I’ve
mentioned that before.
I’m
carrying a lethargy.
It’s
not the time of year.
It’s
not the commitments or my shadow.
I
carry a responsibility to the people of Palestine
to do
more than just tweet, to do more than just protest.
Shouting
“Free
Free Palestine”
will not
free it!
The
West is like a rabbit in the lorry headlights.
We are
frozen by Israel and its hysteria,
its name
calling of antisemitism.
From
being de-humanised themselves they are de-humanising others.
It was
too much to expect that they could deal with the Holocaust.
They’ve
turned that trauma into another one,
and are
exacting a genocide upon the Palestinians.
They have
a blood lust that will not be assuaged by the mealy-mouthed words of
Biden,
Starmer & Sunak.
The
man baby of Bibi was standing there in his black shirt.
He couldn’t
wait for them to shut their mouths because he couldn’t wait,
to carry
on the bombing
The
next time you enter a Hospital,
think about
the al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City and all who perished within.
I
carry a heaviness.

This metered life
THIS
METERED LIFE
.jpg)
It was
National Poetry Day yesterday
but I
forgot
so I’m
writing this today.
The privatised
water company want you to read their meter
The
billionaire owned electricity company likewise.
The
staples of life are all on a goddam reel going round and round
They’re
taking the rain from the skies and selling it to you
with
extra shit for the rivers.
The
fossil fuels they're burning so you can turn on the nobs on the hob.
“The kettles
turned on”
“Well
stop twerking and dancing provocatively in front of it or the element will blow”
If you
wanted to boil an egg in the old days you’d use a Sand Timer
an
hour glass for 14 minutes
The
sand falling through and the meter going round
that’s
your life that is.
Paying
others to be able to just exist
in this metered life.
