Songs of the city

2015

Where are you Martin?

Its best when the love
Is shared and hate is
Silenced.

When a few speak kindly
Amongst the noise of
Negative rhetoric.

Billions of years

working and all

man wants to do

Social media tirades,

Smart phone fascists,

All fighting fire with fire,

Everyone of them vowing

Smite for smite.

Surely a potential

ticking Time bomb.

Two sides so opposed,

one and the other sure

they are right.

It’s their 120 characters of

Fame. Relentless cries from the

Desperate.

Heavy handed put

downs From the

powerful,

Strengthening their platform,
It is mass reality TV.

Everything unfolding live,
Shock and awe style,
Mixed with shout outs and
Back slaps.

Where paedophiles

are Praised,

Domestic abusers are over Due their glory.

Let all be forgiven.
