I have never accepted populism,
it doesn’t sit right with me,
the urging of the crowd hollering,
cajoling each other to stand and be seen
to stand, to whoop and proclaim
to the highest authority, I cheered,
see me applaud, see me take down those
whose smiles are not as wide as mine,
see me ridicule them, see me being authorative,
see me go down the route of guided fascism
when my trained and rehearsed words
in the ears of those who I quite obviously fancy,
