There were racist
Presidents before Trump,
and there will be racist
Presidents after Trump,
but I think we can
safely say there
has never been
and never will be
a President as
racist as Trump.

Crying like a refugee
The way of
Empires is to
wreck countries
all around them
and then refuse
to accept the
consequences.
Choose your side
Is every country
now faced with the
prospect of its
own version of the
Spanish Civil War?
That is the question
I can write.
I can even
write well.
But can I write
well enough?
Dump
The World is
filling up with
the rubbish from
things that
people bought
for no good reason.
Easy answer
The question is
not why men
went to the Moon
but why they
wanted to
come back
Easy solutions
Homo
sapiens will
reject any
solution to
over-
population
and excess
consumption
that doesn’t
involve
killing the other
species we share
this small planet
with, or
killing the other
humans we share
this small planet
with.
Riding down the highway
Fifty years
since
Easy Rider?
Not been
such an
easy ride,
has it?
I read the news today, oh boy!
Paul
McCartney
is seventy seven
and Ringo
Starr
is seventy nine?
Wait a minute.
I’ve lost fifty
years somewhere.
Anyone seen them?
What’s in a context?
It is passing
strange, is it not,
that celebrity
comments criticised
in the media
were always taken
out of context,
while those praised
were always
perfectly
in context.
