garden lighting

defines harsh shadows

age wrinkles

The government claims damage to property

warrants a 'terrorist' designation

but all the public protesting we see

is a helpless government in stagnation.

"Damage of seventy million UK pounds"

they claim when activists throw cans of paint

on Royal Airforce planes upon the ground

and pass a law that like a caveman's club they taint

as terrorists the Palestine Action group

when all they want's to end the genocide

in Gaza by Israeli bombs and troops

with peaceful protest the authorities proscribe.

Eight hundred plus campaigners thus detained

and most of those charged over pension age.

“I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action”

raised garden bed

made with felled cypress logs

and a ton of money

A former Army Sergeant Major pleads guilty

to the sexual assault of now-dead soldier

who took her own life after pledging fealty

and trusted her command to make her older.

Royal Artillery Gunner Jaysley Beck,

who at 19, was found in her barracks, dead

when her superior officers wouldn't check

on what her claim of Michael Webber said.

She was pressured to drop all her allegations

by Captain James Hook, higher in command,

who ignored harassment of her from all stations

including her line manager's demand.

Emma Norton, solicitor for the deceased,

opined now they wish they had called the police.

Gunner Beck, RIP

post-wedding

a party with a pig roast

chick peas and liquorice

Rayner paints a target on her face

avoiding tax on property in Hove

but her greatest critics really have no place

to criticise the tax dodge that she drove.

Farage deflected claims of disinterest

by saying he had bought a house in Clacton

Yet records show his stayed there as a guest

his wife's name on the deeds saved him a stack-ton.

And Jerry Clarkson, TV's biggest wanker

made his fortune by being just a prick

who made billions from BBC's big banker

by having all the charm of an housebrick.

but Rayner, one of Stockport's common lasses,

has become Labour's best scapegoat for the masses.

mixing cement

in my new plastic bucket

my shit bricklaying

'Tis one thing to invite me to a dance

for accept I will, when it is far away

but when the time draws near there is a chance

for me to change my mind upon the day.

And though I cherish thee as dearest friend

and send congratulations on your vow

best wishes and my love I still shall send

but confess I'm feeling antisocial now.

I'll send the card and gift I was to bring

up to your wedding dance this coming night

and of your love for Kerry I shall sing

and bless'd eternity be in your sight.

And so, my dear Amanda, I bid you

the happiest of times in marriage new.

free bucket?

Why, thanks! I need one.

It's full of shit.

An impulse purchase from a software ad

to strip the DRM from Kindle files

an annual fee of thirty dollars had

appeal as a one off fee for trials.

But McCaffee virus killer, says to not

install invasive content as rootkit

and quarantines the installation rot

in fear of this suspicious piece of shit.

An enquiry to the publisher returns

request to turn off all my safety apps

I decline, for terror that this software burns

my privacy and opens Federal taps.

A week of mails goes back and forth to claim

the guarantee to return my cash again.

thunderstorm

while I'm outside building shit

rainsoaked

I'm waiting for the government to change

their mind about inciting violence is wrong;

after "poor ol' Graham Linehan" got a taste

and exploded in a wankfest dance and song.

His TERFing mate Joanna wading in

and spitting self-indulgent rage online

while Farage goes to Trump and makes a spin

on Britain in "Dystopian Nightmare" time.

Starmer backs down on displaying flags

and says St George is fine for fascist folk

while daytime TV shows allow old bags

to call inciting violence "a joke."

So it's okay to start punching friends of mine

but you can't say you're supporting Palastine.

"Free Speech" does not mean "incite violence"

3rd September 2025

Autumnal rain

plans to build a fancy wall

bugger that.

Alas! A complete wanker arrested

for telling people to punch transwomen

The tolerance of police was tested

by tweets on X for violence brimming.

Writer Graham Linehan, former comic,

faced some questions in the station cells,

but his blood pressure rose something chronic

and officers raised health warning bells.

Was Karma bringing a tiny morsel

of what transfolk go through every day

even before Rowling ensorcelled

Scottish Senate to underline her hate.

He was released with just a simple caution.

His Irish mum was denied abortion.

What a tosser!
