Popular Election – Written Wednesday 18th January 2023 (Aged 47)

Popular Election

home revolutionaries
the passive left
all pretending to be my friends
young men,
sorry boys,
impressed by right wing commentators –
and all their toys
they thought they knew how it went
but these young men are fragile
and easily lent
so many people pushing for attention
i am in the last place i know
and you do not find my connection
i am the playboy –
the king of lost direction
where will you be –
come the popular election?




James Garratt – Wednesday 18th January 2023
