giletdonism, chorus iii

it was a massively morbid error

to teach a generation

that the nazis were uniquely evil.

the crime of genocide

is fundamentally human

and celebrated annually

with fireworks and feasts

strong and stable,

safe in our beliefs

let us adorn for the gilet years

whatever starts with hope

will end in tears

it’s the hint of sulphur

underneath the blend

ah well, we’ll get there in the end

the nazis aren’t the only people who have tried to wipe out another race and take their land. that is also how the usa was established. but we see it differently for some reason. and it’s what israel is doing. trump has already set up a gestapo. what crimes are happening that we can’t see yet?

degenerate cosmopolitan

i’m not jewish but i am a degenerate cosmopolitan

tagging my archive, overwhelmed by the burden of time,

the library extends my being

to a new dimension, my mind fleeing

to the shelf. and when i see a single magpie i blurt, i say

there was a second one but i scared it away

down glens and valleys, down spirits and sedatives

my love is unambiguous

but the good souls may as well forgive us

i often reflect that if i lived in nazi germany, i would have been a victim, not a perpetrator. i’m left wing. i believe in individual freedom. i’m an artist. i’m disabled.

i am very scared about the turns being taken in many so called western liberal democracies.

human misery, revenue & customs

i conclude it must stand for human misery,

revenue and customs

israel is a strategic geopolitical position,

a frontier of colonialism,

and its postsoviet bravado is borderline offensive.

i stand in opposition to ethnic cleansing,

whoever practises it

and i guess I’m soft-versus all conflict;

gies peace fae yer game a soldiers

the lifespans on the cusp of either or

then i walked into my bench with such force

that i shrieked and writhed on my floor.

this was what i wrote a year ago, and things only get worse. the world is a terrifying place. i think we should be very scared. we aren’t safe.
