Pen to Poetry Guernsey: Dysfunction

Sunday, 18 February 2018

And the guns of dysfunction still clatter

And the forked tongue of dysfunction still spurns,

And the minds of the sick are left mindless:

And the dysfunction of politicians

And the ignorance of consequence . . . no matter?

And the guns of dysfunction still shatter.

Why not take a visit to Poets United

It does seem as though dysfunction is our norm, but I still fight against it.

Consequences seem to be ignored all over the place these days. Always a pleasure to read you, Julian.

An emotional dysfunction can result in so many senseless school shootings. Unfettered accessibility to guns is asking for trouble!

And still they do.
Vested interests...
And dysfunction lives on in vested interests...
