My  Deep Eccentricity

... ...  
 
Traffic semaphore
A controversial metaphor
Green zone
Green light for diplomatic bags
Rumours become poems
 
Red light 
Corridors of power
Oval versions of Washington
A storm-racked ocean of buildings
Talking to the moon 
As if in an interrogation room
 
So I cast out any embassy
To measure my  deep eccentricity
Because  I will never be  sick... 
Of having to take orders from political freaks
 
Well-read and well-travelled
Drive on,... drive on,... a song on the radio... 
*The darkest side* by the band The Middle East
"Oh, when I die I’m alive...  And when I lose ... I find my identity"
 
... ... ... ...
