Crooked Leadership
Accountable? me? Please, don’t be daft, The sun shines out of my smiley mouth, my empty eyes twinkle like sparkling stars, my baffled brain works to shadow my hand. ————————— Why should I be challenged and accused? Why should you tell me that I am wrong? When will you understand that I am a person…

Not the National Health Service
They clip along clinical corridors and treat the tedious and the tragic, each one reaching beyond their limits so that each one has hope. =========== Enclosing, muffling masks cover their sympathetic smiles, then it’s visors and space suits and visitors unwelcome, and the space is sanitised. =============== Theatres meant for healing lie empty, panicking…

Darkness

Death Ripped Him from Her.
The jagged edges of his death cut through her heart, tearing it out and displaying it for all to see. She looked at it forcing the blood around her body hating it for keeping her alive when he had gone. ——————- Texting messages that showed hope, when she knew the the white…

Democracy lost.
Their faces hidden by veiled views of disdain towards the poor and unemployed, suffering slaves and a cold contempt for the ones who stand against the constant cover-up of criminal ——– actions that pass unheeded before the courts, which they manipulate to their own ends and the visor of innocence is strengthened by misinformation and…
