Welcome to a vision of Hell,
an image in the public gaze
of the country with its reputation
for fair play and stance against fascism
and all things abhorrent, a country
that stood firm against the most evil man
and the tidal wave of black and to whom
decency for the most part was as inherent
as a love for a cup of tea at four in the afternoon,
and now is caught in the mire of selfish gain
offered by a weasel to a cornered mouse.
Washed ashore is the countries’ honour
as a war we managed to inflict brings the
suffering of millions to focused right minded people
and the despair of millions trapped
inside our country
where the political offspring of
Oswald Mosley pumps his arm
back and forth as if he is playing pinball
with the head of the destitute and the hungry
and children with an ounce of individuality
and flair are being taught
that nothing matters except
for that bloated, maggot ridden and pulsing
with fetid pus that is growing without stopping
economic tide and where
other children’s hopes only matter
if they toe the line.
The country that stood firm against Fascism
is in danger of becoming the 21st Century
equivalent…
welcome to Britain, please have your passports
and arms
ready to be stamped
