Poems In Progress - Choices
I was in the dream state
Caught between tides
Told that I wasn’t to wait
Told to pick sides
They called me to revolution
Said that all I need do was sign
Called it evolution
Told me it was benign
And so shall be blessed those on the right
Blessed are those on the right
Somewhere between passport control
Somewhere between strip and search
Between each duck and roll
And each armoured lurch
I stepped back and away
Left the curios and the mystics
Towers falling spike me when I pray
And knives, and headless kicks
Woe to those on those on the left
Cursed shall be those on the left
