Play Me

I dare you, and discover
how dark, how low, how sweet
our music is going to be.

Fifty Two Years Late But Here At Last

'Get Back'/'Don't Let Me Down' was released
11th April 1969, the advert above was put in the press
to promote it, I reproduce it here to honour the new
multi-media extravaganza/media blitz
for the film/record project that it never was at the time, 
but is now out in the form it was meant to be.

The Madness Of America

I am loathe to take pot-shots at America, religions
or the strange course of logic that a religion
can take in the land of the free (to be absurd
and illogical) where the profit motive
infuses and undermines systems of belief.
I know how strange human being can be,
given the opportunity, under Capitalism.

The above rather took my breath away.
It is the image of the son of the Reverend Myung
 Moon, founder of 'The Moonies', Sean Moon.

He is wearing a crown of bullets from the gun factory

he owns and from which he instructs belief in the cult
he runs of worshipping God whilst always holding guns
that are made in the factory he now owns.

It is enough to make a misanthropy beyond Atheism
seem peaceable and sane, by comparison.

A Bad Pun

The gas companies in my country
are raising the price of gas
by much more than they need to,
to, as they see it,
balance supply with demand;
in more than the usual sense of the phrase
they are multiplying the meaning
of the word 'gaslighting'.

The Exam For Failure

has yet to be devised
but were it to exist
I would pass it with ease,
and receive the results
with a balanced measure
of self acceptance.
