Whinger Nation

       Whinger Nation Sequence +

Clinically Insane

Government ought be making cuts.
Hired 60,000 more tuts
or, in raw American, mutts.

Burying The Khanate

A British, Barking Babi Yar
for those unable to walk far
who object to holding a jar.

Total Rage, 8 am

A fat Muslim loading her car,
a door ajar, for bags galore.
Your days vile have a number.

Lab. Insanity

The daft politics of squander
in want of a thorough launder
with bleach, and cutting to conquer.

Mission Critical

Job of Government : to govern
and face facts, break the dodge stubborn
and stop indulging, to adorn.

Productivity

We have too glue unproductive
with little or nothing to live
for, and zoned, with nothing to give.

December 18th 
==============================

      Malfaisant  Prosecution
    re. WKTDV Rule-Breaking

     Camden Council : an enviro-
mental abomination, woe
feather-bedding the enemy
      due Trial at The Old Bailey.

     You now deserve unending rage.
You cannot even turn a page.
Charge : destruction of French spacing.
Charge two : building overbearing.

listed participants with the CNJ

          Pointless People

Sitting around all day, gaping
listening to horror squawking,
too vacant to go shift walking.
They are not worth any funding.

December 18th/19th

       From Spring 1946

    
Lowell wrote of Louis MacNeice :
' perhaps the most observant eye
in England ' ( before Larkin, wry ).
Later, feared Theodore Roethke.
My Oxford Tutor, objector
did claim Lowell a non-scanner,
he who had composed ' The Quaker
Graveyard in Nantucket, ' post war.
I, unable to live in peace :
ahead, for me, more Germany
I with a fated destiny.
Of course, Malaya cast a shadow,
the road I was meant to follow :
      Military Intelligence.

Nb RL in Winter 1946 Sewanee Review.
Elsewhere, praised 'Bagpipe Music'.

          In April 1959

Reviews of Life Studies fairly 
tepid, in England, overly
close to the bone, here, in a way ;
the work has gained power, to stay.
Out there : a subtle deriding
of American consuming,
that of the Hidden Persuader,
of Communist Arthur Miller.

Nb Death of a Salesman (1949)
The Hidden Persuaders (Vance
Packard 1957) Howl (AG 1956)
      
          Lowell To Trump

You, Don, are Caesar Augustus :
I gift my 'July In Washington'
(South American Liberators
like 
note) from For The Union
Dead 
(summer 1963) 
then Near The Ocean writ less free.
The lines about "All life's grandeur
..something with a girl in summer "
Waking Early Sunday Morning
(ex. the is) might grant a dawning.

Nb summer line one syllable too many.
December 18th/19th

      Black Hole Lying

     The OBR Fantasia
entered a lying Chancellor
deceived in The House. Near twelve
billion extra borrowing
the Debt number for November
alone. Then, twelve multiplying
gives circa 'the black hole' number
for the year ; not just a black elve.

Nb April > November £132 billion
new Public Debt run up..more anon

          Gospel Oak

      Caught in a tidal wave of evil
emanating from The Devil,
dying, weeping for the civil
subject to the trivial
and the dribbly bestial.
How dare pander on Mount Anvil.

          Gospel Oak 2

     The title deeds belong to God
not the poisonous who have robbed
and, putrid, do not give a sod.

The kept stench of their between-legs
worse than anything from dog dregs.
The dead-eyed zombies wrap to pegs.

The good people do what is told
and, informed, prepare to be bold.
     Their singing will never be old.

           Political Class

      Of staggering stupidity
in their financial fantasy,
their land of imbecility
overrun by sheer devilry,
the land worse than Purgatory.
For a Prison Camp, their story.

          Salvation Program

     5 pence extra on Income tax ;
increase, here and there, VAT ;
Benefits cut to Europa
level, though zero per Mecca ;
Whitehall Budget, cut ten per cent ;
NHS charging for the lax.
Hey presto ! land back in the black
and our tormentors on the rack.
No way but kittens in a sack
drowning, for salvation on track.

           Yule Pub Quiz

If, was there here the Muslim stench
off a bar and table serving wench ?
rarely made by men here, to blench.
I wrote once, that God is beauty.
Today, good beer can taste fruity
     and a young woman bunch, rooty.

           Miranda Resume'

Who learnt the flash Coup de foudre
plus que le Samedi ordre
trying to cross the sex border.

      Anita Lopez (Sonnet)

     AI influencer, online :
athletic body, flawless skin,
sports pink hair and quivers gaming,
pouty lips, a challenging stare :

claiming : I will beat you, bedding
realistically sex-air,
Ruben Cruz, Diana Nunez
declared her creators.

Elle launched 'skincare brand' Vellum
for other AI personas (!)
to look more realistic : come
with me ! Revenue, $1 million.

From software, unto software, hard
to hold. Accounts, Barcelona.

          Machado Triplet

But if you can never tongue her
if you met her, where do you enter
a lot sadder, AI wiser.

       Acting AI  for Harriet

     Which actress can act out AI ?
With whom you could go on, and sigh.
Not worth buying one for AI,
     no matter how hard you might try.

     You never wanted the ointment ;
that led to much disappointment.
Oh Bard, is all the world a stage ?
    living acting, to turn the page.   

       Archbishop Of Westminster

was The Bishop of Arundel
and Brighton, born in Zambia
fittingly. Fed in Chichester ;
Legions tread by The Cathedral.
Can be seen on ridgeback Stane Street. 

The Eastern Forts (Donetsk Region)

     Kramatorsk, Druzhkivka, are they,
with Kostantynivka, in play
somewhat like Verdun, Eastern Front,
their prior occupation, blunt ;
Paris, the eastern bastion.
( Reading of torture and pillage,
does the bare rhyme rape the village.)

December 20th finis 

       Driving Force

     Driven by unending fury
at the evil all and sundry
not least that eating at Windsor
and total linguistic squalor.
One day, we will need force majeure
     a Highland Regiment piper.

        Muse Guidance

     From the Virgin Mary beaming,
Lancaster Avenger bombing
our Government daylight robbing.
Worse still, from key children stealing
for the dank traitor rewarding,
the country needing transforming
partly through angelic winging,
the chanting of Latin singing
and a ghastly year is ending
that had to endure mind-bending.
Wolves parry in the snow, Norway
helping rebut nuclear day
and there is army on the way
     again for Narvik, the ore sleigh.

*****************************
       Seul, Bon Noel

     Now, I have too little to say,
with no offspring. Never had the pay.
There is the language outward there
gone and the wall and the heart bare.

December 21st/ December 23rd

zonked over Xmas period with a lung
infection from a bout of sneezing (mostly
better now but thought death was near)
a couple of Sonnets emerged in due 
course. Spent the time re-reading Ian
Hamiltons harrowing Biography of 
Robert Lowell - saw much commanlity
in the background. On Christmas morning
attended a Full Mass mostly in Latin -
the Credo sung from The Gods by a 
powerful young woman staggering.....
Lowell went ex for a year then in the mid
West experienced much the same thing
and 'a massive outpouring of Grace'...
which for him was totally de-stabilising.
Leaving the Church (feast cancelled)
was totally devastating and a beautiful
young woman (there always are) just ran
off. My bit Camden now like The Deep
South at best. I was saved by a text from 
A at 6 pm on Christmas Day, alone, ill
