Who steal our children\u2019s bread,<\/em>
Whose hands of greed are stretched to rob<\/em>
The living and the dead.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
to underfunded state schools<\/p>\n
their self-perpetuating criteria<\/p>\n
relations visit to a food bank<\/p>\n
refuse to let our children go hungry<\/p>\n
privately patrolled cordons<\/p>\n
the law was merely a fable<\/p>\n
the raised welts of whippings<\/p>\n
a separate race of troglodytes<\/p>\n
on our ancestral belittlement<\/p>\n
the impunities of power and stealth<\/p>\n
while building personal oligarchies<\/p>\n
our families shudder like ghouls<\/p>\n
as they dance to the tune of a billionaire<\/p>\n
lining the pocket of a super-rich cunt.<\/p>\n
their positions were dynamited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
