Killing

It strikes me how polite
We must crazily be
To satisfy our alleged
Betters squeezing us
To some garden that
Smells of active poverty.

Oh look there's a lupin!

We're so beaten now that no one fights back. There are thousands of people standing on Wall Street, protesting, but they can't even say what they want.

Downsizing is a national duty and must be complied with? That is because there are lots of homeless people that need your space. Asylum seekers; Travellers; Vagrants: Property Speculators et al....If I was ever forced to abandon my property I would exchange it only for a $2m condo in Palm Springs then they can do what they like with it. I too have a lupin but it is grey,covered in mould and withered by early Scottish frosts. Nice seasonal poem by the way but I fear I have mis-read your message.The stench of death may not be masked by floral tribute, and our minds not hardened to casual murder, no matter how much they deservd it.
Sid.
