Magic & High Court ruling

I've just unearthed this (poetic tirade) amongst a pile of rough drafts - I still rage against the same governing party .....

Listening to Archie Shepp 'The Magic of Ju-Ju'

( a response after hearing news of Tory High Court clampdown

on CWU right to strike}

the rage and fury bursts

straight through my anger

diverts my impotent rage

grants a directional force

the struggle continues

as more is stolen

from the poorest

their power and pride

screams out

My draft poem’Towards an Autocratic State’ was also a response to the same court ruling:

Lines whilst listening to “New Thing at Newport” (1965)

[Draft 4]

the reeds stray

from strident to mellifluous  

Soaring and flailing through the air

dance and sing their way

                           

                        around and over percussive beats

release me from despondency

assure me that at least

                         I can still feel
