I want to scream
from the deepest part in my belly
filling every cell with rage
and letting it out
with a scream that will
rattle windows
and shake Westminster
because
——————–
I am so crushed
to see it all happening
again, the poor having
putrified options,
and the friend
I once had
informed
that she’s a
foreigner.
————————-
They rule like spreading trees,
nothing can grow beneath
their strong branches
but their offspring;
and like the Red sea
they divide ‘n drown
people in their wake.
—————————
Like cyclones they
roar over the
voices of the many
destroying lives
and leaving behind
chaos and somehow
they assume the right
and blue is the colour
of poverty.
