In the Future

-

 In the future there will be adult-sized scooters 

that travel at high velocity without making a sound 

In the future buses will have automatic doors 

but ticket collectors will be a thing of the past in the future 

In the future people will have access to exercise freely 

as long as they are a member 

In the future smoking will become electronic and 

you will not have to visit an arcade in order to gamble

In the future culture will be truly diverse 

thanks to the capabilities of electronic calculus 

to taxonomize difference into smaller and smaller calibrations.

In the future all superstition will be replaced with coincidence

And the interstices of society will be a filled with expanding foam

In the future the post will be handled by virtual mail order

In the future dust will never settle but neither will it rise.

In the future shopping trollies will steer easily

On account of having a mind of their own

Blackberry Picking

Blood and brambles Bloody Shambles Cameron gambles On Hardline angles "its criminality undiluted" Nations youths have been poluted And while economy takes a tumble I'm at home making blackberry crumble Filled with fruits harvested in scrubland Behind Sainsbury's full of thorns and Smelt of decaying vegetation Seemed emblematic of the nation Made my young son feel ill at ease Paths ill defined,shapes in the trees Such physical pursuits to him Seem unnecessary and alien I tell myself it does him good As any self-respecting father would Hands made for grasping a controler Each bramble scratch will make him wholer But now its my hands that are stained With crimson juices - fear I've refrained From doing this when he was younger And somehow bred one more war-monger But thorny pricks upon my skin Convince me I should not give in. Who needs another liberal deserter In face of national inertia? Instead of always asking why? Perhaps we should
