No soul in politics

Streets littered with propaganda,

Chastised with irrefutable words,

No-one exempt from cold souls,

Chilled ice-breaking hearts,

Melted and cooled,

For an ignoramus to pour and consume,

He has consumed the poisonous water,

The water of the few and plentiful.

Best Place on Earth

Image
Gillingham the best place on Earth, Where police roam and hoodlums hide, Children scatter after graffiti writing, On bikes and boards to the nearest clearing, A park or forest wherever easier, Its still freezing, wet, and damp, With misery met right in your face. As for Croydon its filled with, Chics and dicks and e’en more so dickheads, The shouts and clouts, spills and tumbles, Bears no thrills in me anymore, I’m bone sore with grievousness, Tone deaf from the knocks, Squinting slyly for no reason. Then as for London town’s rolling cars, Directing signs for lost travellers, Posts posted firmly against mystified walkers, Fences built and windows boarded up. Rubbish bags flung outside disdainfully. Hustle and bustle on tube, train and bus, Pushing, squeezing and sneezing, A man says desperately blurting, “Bust me your travelcard bruv?” “Please!” He screams in dire need, “I’ve been waiting to go home since three! All I need to do is...

September 2017 'Let us hold hands'

Image
UN General Assembly - September 2017 The last couple months have seen huge international discourse over differences, particularly relating to the way in which, individual countries are run. Countries like China, North Korea, USA and Russia have their very own independent way of leadership and even though, most of these are democratically led there has been bullish rhetoric inciting tension.  Tensions are due to economic rivalry, sanctions and inappropriate international communication relating to arms and nuclear threats.  One argument is, it is all 'Lost in Translation' and the schoolyard testimonies of political leaders need to revisit the facts of the initial political discrepancies and deal with them with proper and appropriate international formality.  The famous writer Cicero wrote, "Everything is indefinite, misty, and transient; only virtue is clear, and it cannot be destroyed by any force."  Virtue is the most potent weapon, which can never...
