A Week In Politics (is A Long Time)

(undiscovered kingdom)



In a windy street in a bitter morning

A seagull flies into a fire of blazing sun

In the minutes after midnight

When humans let go

Only cat and litter move without fear



Undiscovered kingdom



Underneath an awful stern

Above dark dock water

And anchor hangs wounded from a ragged body

In a seething pub at midday

A boy has lost his way

From a hundred empty faces

A hundred gazes glare



Undiscovered kingdom



Sometimes i touch

Sometimes i see

Sometimes i feel

Sometimes i really know



Undicovered kingdom



In an angry alley

The paints been left to run

From a daubed swastika on an abandoned vw

A cathedral door is opened

A woman wipes away a tear

Sunlight streams in

As a priest puts out a brief candle



Undiscovered kingdom
