Oh no, not again, do I need to repeat myself
don’t fight fire with fire
bomb a weapons factory sounds a bit stupid
not in our name, Ms. May
you’re not my prime minister
neither your party my
kind of party
needless to say I don’t support Trump
or any missile strikes on Syria, or anywhere else
no I don’t, not in our name
violence attracts violence
smart bombs are an oxymoron
moron
heard it all before?
not my flag and not my country
not my fight
some tories caught lying about
Novochok
now blindly following agent Orange
over the top into the shyte
I think politicians and leaders are
dangerous when ratings are low
they lash out Bush Blair style
indiscriminately burry criticism
in acts of bold stupidity like
agreeing to support American air
strikes on Syria
sad
oral anal territorial primate behaviour
at the very least
as Corbyn and others suggest, rest.
Put the air-strike to a vote
don’t just throw it to crazy Mayday
and not allowing a vote on such
critical measures as military interventions
and pleading for no vote
literally defines her as a Russian Tsar
one divine decision maker
one holy leader to miss-lead the masses
to remain silent in condemning the merciless
and reckless language and school yard
fighting tweet talk by Trump
and not call for caution and
on bombing Syria
puts you
Ms. May
slightly lower than him
if that be possible
in hell cowardly hiding behind
his blatant buffoonery
quietly hiding behind an insulting bully
like you hide behind Boris
and other alpha males
like the brexit shambles and cocky
talk about making demands to the E.U
the arrogance of war
the ignorance of greed
not in our name
to repeat, solidarity to the peacemakers
an afterthought: has facebook created a vote/poll
on the Syria invasion? bomb or not to bomb?
after all, it’s the largest democratic forum on earth.
Why not decide military interventions via’ social media?
Trump does.
what? only your state-based democracies
constitute a real democracy, eh?
have you heard the US senate lately?
or the British house of commons this week
except the odd one or two
they seem predictable, rarely dazzling
hilarious or surprisingly poetic
let’s each build our own neuro-chemical
weapons laboratory to craft
smart neuro-harpoons and detection
deflection defences to help search out
and/or destroy and/or defend against
the roots of destructive forces among men:
racism, sexism, bullying, lies, deceit
coercion, exaggeration, total conviction
