Connection
the illness is quite apparent
the intelligence,
sadly lacking
and the personality –
quite transparent
what did they teach them
in that comprehensive school
what did they teach them
in a house where silence was the rule
unable to connect
or even face facts
unable to connect
what happened to you?
James Garratt – February 2006
