Burning Injustices (Theresa May)
How did she keep that straight face?
Pledging to ease suffering caused
by her Conservative government,
by their own flammable policy,
Lead not by knowledge or need
but by pro profit ideology.
Who needs experts anyway?
She didn't just fail to extinguish,
She exacerbated the flames.
Her premiership had been
gallons of gushing gasoline.
Feeding the ravenous fire
In the forest of public funds
They butchered the trees,
leaving only kindling, killing the green.
Happy to fuck off and frolic away
from perfect conditions for a blaze.
This forest fire of austerity,
that would span the country.
for which all Conservatives have culpability.
See, she was just another tank of Tory fuel,
just another blend of cruel;
transforming burning injustices
into a towering inferno.
- A tower, in inferno.
We all saw the pictures,
the horror seared into the back of our eyes.
Seventy-one, then seventy-two lives.
They burnt and there is no justice.
For the bereaved; no fucking peace.
No accountability scorches their souls
already smouldering with grief.
Politicians like May will always neglect
they will see the ashes and won’t reflect.
Its up to us to put the fire out.
