ON A DARK NIGHT

Saturday was black, wet and dismal
walking from teaching language and literature
through the alley of mother's flat

there in Firth Park on the Pennine Way
hooded midgets in expensive gear
drooping baggy jeans and swarthy skins

only one lamp lit the alleyway
a group of young men
with bags wet and glistening

passing by me shouted out
'she needn't think she's getting this stuff back'
laughing loudly at me

which is the method the lab favours for telling of its crimes
tonight New Year's day night,
returning from mother's flat

she's ninety one in a few days
yet the research beasts still use her
and son, whom they hammer mercilessly

two Pakistanis stood on either side of the alley opening
said one to the other
'that was her stuff you wrote, wasn't it?'-' Yea' and laughter

That is the method the research beasts favour
because they were told by L.A.
this method brings anger to its limit

L.A. man is a jew and a homosexual they say
Sad really, my grandparents saved jews from Hitler
and my best friend was a homosexual man!

Three days ago, at three a.m. on microsound
the lab put on
the whole area will be filled with her words

sad how professionals teach the young to cheat and thieve
the stuff the Pakistani wrote
is of eastern european background

to be copied as the jewish lab workers
had used it to write stories in their own names
to Women's World, Cosmopolitan and other magazines

So if the jewesses and jews had committed crimes
they have to ensure that everyone else
also commits crimes, so their crimes seem less.
