Hi
Yet more powerful images in the news today, such raw emotion. I can only imagine how angry the surviving former residents of Grenfell Tower are beginning to feel.
It was all too surreal to comprehend at first, I would think, looking up at the shell of their homes and knowing that this tragedy was forewarned, but its remedy forestalled.
The class questions this raises are not going to just disappear, and nor should they.
Word Decisive Circulate Offset Acquit Roll Disaster Aloof Hilarious
They don’t believe a word she says
About being decisive
And working tirelessly
For the common good.
As rumours circulate,
And the promised
Is offset by reality;
It is hard to acquit guilt.
When hours roll by
And a leader does not share
Solidarity in the face of disaster –
Appears aloof,
Stirring anger in her wake –
They must be forgiven
For taking to placards and soundbites;
Finding platitudes
Ruefully hilarious.
