James Garratt – A life lived and recorded in ink since 1992
powerful institutions only conserve power
and protect their class
they are abstract portrait painters
behind frosted glass
and you want this?
the green hills of england start to melt
the communities of commerce
have forcibly tightened our belts
yet the power is biased
and only destined for the few
your wages will pay for their –
ideological wet dream
this is not for me and you
the honest truth –
is that integrity is honesty
not populism –
bought off the shelf
he represents america
and its eschewed values
around wealth and power
its love of capitalism
and how it must flower
we must invest and we must spend
that’s a poverty itch
that the wealthy,
never have to scratch
lower those taxes
inequality is no match
