And so it goes on…

And so it goes
On
People protest
Against dead bodies
“They’re all terrorists
each and every one”
He says, they say
And so it goes on
The people are lost
Picking through rubble
Discovering their loved ones
Dead clothes
But the truth is being hidden
Sanitised by the news
The killing is not so awful
They plead
And so it goes on
So Biden rambles on
So all leaders play lip service
Knowing…
It won’t be their lips
Kissing a dead son
It goes on
It goes on
it goes on
Born 1964, (Liverpool, England) to a difficult birth, David didn't find his voice until his youth. Years of thinking he was nobody and treated as such. Including a period of homelessness in the desperate Thatcher Years. However, he hit the paper papering over the scars. Found understanding and belief through words. He has been published and performed widely from the BBC, The Tate, galleries and pubs and everything in between. His poems and stories are autobiographical, others topical and several his take on life.
