racists’ self hatred
why do you hate those
who don’t
look like you
look bloody awful first thing
in the morning
and not
that great after lunch
and don’t even look in the mirror
after dinner
I’ve a hunch you
can’t help but feel
sick
who don’t
look like you
look bloody awful first thing
in the morning
and not
that great after lunch
and don’t even look in the mirror
after dinner
I’ve a hunch you
can’t help but feel
sick

how about I just sit here nice and quiet
old bloke in the bar says
I can’t go home in this weather, not with
my chest and this cough
but the publican replies
sorry mate, we’re closing
up and you can’t stay here all night
aye, says the old bloke, it’s
a conundrum, right enough ..

authoritarianism, ad infinitum
nothing to do with us,
although we’ve got
our own
right wing problem
is that so many people seem to
like ‘em

notes
I write notes on everything
but she draws the line when it comes
to the sofa
I said I knew that was you
but she draws the line when it comes
to the sofa
I said I knew that was you

it all smells a bit iffy
time and space are irrelevant when
we’re tucked up in bed, and yes I know
that the alarm clock has gone off,
but we can always get a new one ..
