for so long i tried to be anti-racist...
i could be... most accommodating...
i could truly stomach
the multi-culture pact of
a post-colonial empire implosion...
all the white girls were accommodating...
sure... i'll eat curry...
but there's only so much curry
you can eat...
and you're not going to
imitate the Asians and eat
it for ******* breakfast, are you?
what happened to eggs...
to French pastry?
for fresh buns...
         i tried not being a racist
and i still "try"...
but even i'm being race-baited...
an outlier like the city of Romford...
on the outskirts of greater London:
in local news...
the Debenhams was shut...
what's to replace it?
a Bangladeshi mall...
curry! curry! curry!
saris in the upper levels...
i thought that Havering was a conservative
area...
across the street the Church will become
a... shop that sells... chandeliers...
like in Scotland...
but i'm not English:
this isn't my land...
yet i'm... bemoaning the transformation...
racist?! ha ha...
are there any Bangladeshi girls
available...
is it that one: where...
because she's the woman...
my children would speak the lingua "franca"
of English... Bengali...
but zero of ******?!
well... sorry... **** that...
the local erupted with speculation
that the Debenhams would be turned
into a mosque...
well... if "they" congregate to breed
commerce...
                "lucky" me... i have an escape
plan... i can always live out a hermit's life
in Poland...
this... isn't my land...
i once... cared... but seeing how the natives
capitulated...
the Jews ******* first... the whites follow suit...
only today i was honked at
at the Gants Hill roundabout...
i managed to see a tight passage...
the driver of a supposed... ahem: TANK...
thought otherwise... he owned the road!
he did?!
i looked around... eh... ****-smear skinned
donning sunglasses...
perfect! the ******* and a *******!
i was so accommodating once upon
a time... i really was...
but even me, now: feel...
infringed upon... it's creeping up on me...
England is a lost sort of a case...
thank god or no one for the back-up
plan i have in my head...
my parents die i'll probably *******
from England...
i don't want to live among the cowering
sorts...
from the height of the empire:
to this... now?
making it near impossible for the natives
to reproduce so one might eat up
more... ******* curry curry: carry?!
i don't believe myself asking
the question: am i racist?
i sound like an Englishman...
cosmopolitan art: at best...
          i'm just slightly bothered...
the local Debenhams is turned into
a Bangladeshi mall... plentiful sairs
and curries...
well it's almost like the Russians
reclaiming the southern Slavs
from the Turks...
sorry... the barbers: you don a beard?!
bitter absinthe... infused with
coriander seeds...
i'll drink what no one else will
drink...
little pockets of anger:
framed at would be Bangladeshis...
the middle-finger
and a pronounced ****-off...
the world! awaits!
this is... not my... land!
i don't wish to be quaking...
Ing-Leash;
for ****'s sake,,,
the natives are not going to
"save" us... are they..
