"commonwealth" poems
Gold crown of Olympus, hair crown and Skin gown. First we throw our bodies at One another. Heaping piles of human soup. Bold maneuvers, hands and mouths and Boy meets girl lying down, on top, intertwined. Skittish moves on a tryst. Wet fingers of freshly Tendered infinite decibel pleasure screams. Streamers above a long rooting movement. Overture of Aphrodite. Sparkling, glitter woman, Legs pressed tightly to the chest, Loose appendages intertwined. Intersticed dactyls In rapture, soothing. Bodies build to one heart's beat. Two muses fused together. If I wasn't afraid I'd wake you up I'd slip on my shoes and make a tropical fruit fondue. Stage two: Ice cream lover's delight. Opus to brown sugar. To swimming again, a pursed lurking of lips In the academy of the pastoral commonwealth. We eat at our stations of the sublime. Today which was A day of discord- you nursed me back to the land of the living. Stage three: *** Stage four. *** Stage five: As we earn our pageantry to take Stride on this Earth, and string a Great bow of eager success among all of us, You, me, them. While I continue to Gaze at you. If not dinner, perhaps a Cup of tea instead.

The Stages of Sleep
Everyone in me is a bird. I am beating all my wings. They wanted to cut you out but they will not. They said you were immeasurably empty but you are not. They said you were sick unto dying but they were wrong. You are singing like a school girl. You are not torn. Sweet weight, in celebration of the woman I am and of the central creature and its delight I sing for you. I dare to live. Hello, spirit. Hello, cup. Fasten, cover. Cover that does contain. Hello to the soil of the fields. Welcome, roots. Each cell has a life. There is enough here to please a nation. It is enough that the populace own these goods. Any person, any commonwealth would say of it, "It is good this year that we may plant again and think forward to a harvest. Many women are singing together of this: one is in a shoe factory cursing the machine, one is at the aquarium tending a seal, one is dull at the wheel of her Ford, one is at the toll gate collecting, one is tying the cord of a calf in Arizona, one is straddling a cello in Russia, one is shifting pots on the stove in Egypt, one is painting her bedroom walls moon color, one is dying but remembering a breakfast, one is stretching on her mat in Thailand, one is wiping the *** of her child, one is staring out the window of a train in the middle of Wyoming and one is anywhere and some are everywhere and all seem to be singing, although some can not sing a note. Sweet weight, in celebration of the woman I am let me carry a ten-foot scarf, let me drum for the nineteen-year-olds, let me carry bowls for the offering (if that is my part). Let me study the cardiovascular tissue, let me examine the angular distance of meteors, let me **** on the stems of flowers (if that is my part).. Let me make certain tribal figures (if that is my part). For this thing the body needs let me sing for the supper, for the kissing, for the correct yes.

We are a global society When we want oranges in the fruit bowl, When we want out of our rut Just long enough To brown in a patch of Spanish sun. We are a global society When the Japanese car breaks down And we are in need of a cheap fix To keep food on the table, Some Latvian mechanic Who helps us find our way home. We are our own nation, An island nation, When the zeroes run low And there are spaces, Foreign faces, To which we can point And blame. We are a global society With our sweat-shop chic, American coffee chains Selling Colombian ground beans, Frappuccinos in plastic cups- Made in China And served by a Romanian barista In Italian heels. We are a global society When the demand is high And the payment is low. We are our own nation, An island nation, When hands reach out for help And our pockets are too shallow, Our time, too brief To commit to a unity We feel is dragging us down. We are a global society When the football is on, When the lager is Belgian And the supermodel, Greek. When we cradle that bag of Cheetos After smoking too much **** We are a global society When oppression is overt, Caricatured in bulletin posters, Threatening to land Upon our own front door. We are our own nation, An island nation, When poverty seems contagious, When we have to clean up Someone else’s mess, Still we scar the Middle East Only half-interested in an exit. We are a global society When we get sick, When we borrow another doctor For our ailing NHS. When cities of white people burn, We are a global society, When Africa is divided, We are nowhere to be seen. Prime mover of the commonwealth Yet we fall beneath the breadline And living easy is so rare. We are our own nation, An island nation, Under the false flag Of a golden age We were conned to believe in. Our nation, our island nation, Lost amongst a sea of misinformation.

On the twenty third of June, anniversary of my father’s death, The United Kingdom voted to LEAVE the European Union. It was a close-run thing: Fifty two percent to forty eight, Though over a million votes between. A result that will go down in the annals of history. Another vote the pollsters and bookmakers got wrong. I voted Leave, confidently expecting to Lose!!! My friends were split in two As Remainers became ReMOANers! For I’m now branded a nationalist, bigoted racist Who has made a massive mistake. But I insist: Britain has Rejoined the World And Our Commonwealth. We are reborn So sure there will be teething troubles. We’ll have to learn to walk and talk again. Cast off your gloom, Remainers! Rejoice the brand new day. Britain can be great again As the dawn chorus resonates around the globe. Opportunity smiles down on us. It won’t be easy, But when ever was it so??? The Phoenix rises, Unfurling its golden wings… Paul Butters © PB 27\6\2016.

Brexit
March in the streets But I urge you beware They’ll still butcher the sheep With the arms that they bear Private properteers part with No slave cropper’s share So this Northern aggression's Like Freeman’s red scare   All the colors of wind Through the head-shavers’ hair The Guevara adventures These pigs wouldn’t D.A.R.E. The Arabian knights In the grand wizard’s lair The denaturalized dreamer’s Recurring nightmare Of the Stalingrad ghost Still witch-hunting like Blair The projects to the precincts’ New modern welfare The post-trauma disorderly’s Empty screen stare The savages they thought Were waaaaayyyy over there The debt clock ticky tock In the heart of Times Square The 1st world problem-children Who commonwealth care Because some barely EAT And we’ve so much to spare But these cowherds still like their calves Medium rare And the bulls try to sell you Their laissez-faire snare Till your trapped in a minimum cage’s Last prayer And the only escape Is upgraded software Like automaton autobahn’s In disrepair In this fascist facade’s Fragrant breath of fresh air Just as toxic as stocks Of the mock billionaire So I shock ‘em like Tesla’s Bolt-action Voltaire And I leave it to you To go **** it out there

Weaponized Enlightenment for the Youth in Revolt
They are silent and beautiful, gorgeous in in the white halo, cemented in a beautiful terrazzo, baring the names of fallen soldiers, the European soldiers that fell in Wars; second and first and the heinous silent wars, i hope this is why they have a proverb; white sepulchre, only baring the white dead, only chiefs but no dead Indian. Common wealth graveyards are all over in Africa, in India , panama , Latin America and europe, the active fronts in which the allies fought ****** they are beautifully placed in silently posh areas, in langata when in Nairobi, in Mbaraki when in Mombasa, in Matisi when in Kenya, In Namusungui when in Lodwar, They bear horizontal silence with white names engraved on their beautiful face shouting the glory of European empires, which provoked the evil sense in the heart of the king's horseman in Kenya, in the city of Nairobi, to steal the graveyard lands, he made them his urban home with an uppish courtyard, for him the dead white neighbours are better than in-corruption. I walk around the commonwealth graveyards, in the all quarters of erstwhile British empire, looking for the names of African soldiers , who died in thousands fighting for the queen the royal bloodied woman of England;Elizabeth, Looking for the sons of Ethiopia who stood with the second duce Benito son of Mussolini, fighting for Hitler,for Shintos in the European war, i have seen no name of any African, I have not seen Wandabwa wa masibo, who was conscripted into the first world war, Along with his father Biket wa Khayongo, Biket back after seven years in 1918, carrying Wandabwa's Belt, Wandabwa died in the field, Where was he buried, he is nowhere Not anywhere among the soldiers in cemeteries, I have not seen Nasong'o wa Khayongo, who was conscripted in 1940, to fight against ****** he was conscripted on his nuptial evening, even before he had had the first *** with his new wife, he went away crying, he never came back, his name is nowhere in the graves the commonwealth graves that bare names of the fallen, Fallen soldiers, but they all bare white names in the black world. you come to Africa, Kenya, Nigeria, Malagasy,Egypt, whatever the geographies of Africa, and you keep keen, you hear someone is called Mr. Keya, or Madam Keya, or you come to Bungoma county of Kenya, you meet a man that is of the circumcision age group, Known as Bakikwameti Keya, Bakinyikewi Musolini, Keya is subverted sound for Kings african rivals; KAR the African sound for KAR is Keya, in reference to mass conscription of Africans into the KAR, to fight ****** A child born during that time is Keya, A man circumcised during the time is in the age group of Keya, A simple lesson in regard to our people, taken away to fight the colonial power and left to died and rot away in the bush with a simple courtesy for ceremonial burial, that come along with the death of soldiers, who passed away in the battle field.

words conveyed with a mutual clarity parity for communication will end only when the world ends first and the communitas is no more,and words, exist purposelessly   for there is no left with whom to communicate, precisely but now, of this moment, write words, sentences multiplied but circumscribed, verses with mystical aura, whose utility so suspect and multiple meanings hidden within, taken by you for the specific utility you uncover and create ah, to write of things clearly visible to all, but possessed differently, by each reader, this is the greatest commonsensical commonwealth useful for and of humans indexed by unique word tendons tenderly when this passes, when literature no longer can be messengered to 127 Persian provinces, each the message same, yet given up in 127 different languages^ when you understand my poems perfectly then, *their utility is inutile, the usefulness is in the* nth reinterpretation, *a million and still counting, as long as you must guess at its labyrinth wired inner construct, being pleasured by the roiled and rolled curves upon your tongue, a lives paired wine tasting, together believing in the greatness of joyous frustration some say, I do, the world is better for the utility of thine own struggled understanding, the truest combination of two way communication, surpassed only by our armed embrace at last* p.s.

“how the world will be when words run out of their utility”...Pradip
i disavow my allegiance to the flag, & to the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. for we are not one people, we are not united, we do not live in love, & we are unfortunately serviced. what does the future hold for my Bahama land? with our resources not being utilized for the betterment of our people... but being sold to non-Bahama land. no profits being aimed to, or sources being owned by our Bahama man. as i lift my head to the rising of the sun in this Bahama land, i see no hope for the future, no hope in my Bahama land. no one to speak up, the youth are out of luck. the elders show no interest, we are doomed. still, we march on to the glory.. but what bright banners do we have to wave high? the means of the leaders are of no significance, & i can no longer bear the pain that i witness. how will we excel if we do not love, & unite? going forward, will we stand together for a common, loftier goal? as i lift up my head to the rising sun in my Bahama land; i see anguish, i see fear & leaders with no care. all the things i see are broad. ...but may the road that my people trod lead us to our God, that will help us on this march to save our Bahama land.

MY BOOK IN BUCKINGHAM PALACE
763 He told a homely tale And spotted it with tears— Upon his infant face was set The Cicatrice of years— All crumpled was the cheek No other kiss had known Than flake of snow, divided with The Redbreast of the Barn— If Mother—in the Grave— Or Father—on the Sea— Or Father in the Firmament— Or Brethren, had he— If Commonwealth below, Or Commonwealth above Have missed a Barefoot Citizen— I’ve ransomed it—alive—

He told a homely tale
I woke up to the pious sunlight of broken dreams drenched in the faded tear drops of yesterday arcing like a broken rainbow down empty streets leading to the septic tank of tomorrow. Resplendently dressed in rhetoric silk woven by congenial weevils frantically fed on gypsum and diesel weaving verbosity with loquacity table a motion to make independence illegal; keep the status quo unequal between certain people. There once was a dream called change proclaimed to be the prize of revolution by some restrained and contained as hyperbole by others the disenfranchised left muddled in facts unexplained the vocal ambivalence of political unrest is to blame as Union Jacks march on Glasgow with steel toe-capped boots and in the George Square riots the Saltire burns in flames as history repeats itself and the thistle of Scotland is ripped by her roots the first act as a welcome back into the fold of the commonwealth .

There Once was a Dream Called Change
Burgundy book oh such a creation. 500 million British passports in circulation. Patterned leaves adorning a secret interior. Without this treasure am I inferior? Access to benefits and free healthcare. In a world like ours in a world so unfair. Shiny pocket book taken for granted? Non owners aware of its powers, automatically deemed the disenchanted. Access to a phone call. Access to legal aid. Access to commonwealth. Access to the European Union. Access to free education. Human rights. Freedom. That marvellous lifesaving book of epic proportions with the ability to eradicate human ill-fortune.

Passport
The last drops have been swallowed, And the last vestiges Of post-wage labor Libationary sorrow Swagger slowly off Into the night Across cracked pavement Like slugs after rain. I pick up the chemtrail Left by my father And follow it to A makeshift master suite Wedged between a Rundown groundskeeper Shed and the unkempt Wilderness beside the Desolate bike path In rural Seekonk. The rest of this comatose Town in this overdosed Commonwealth Are separated By enough trees And undergrowth And small Night creatures Calling to each other In the dark That they can't hear The nightly Rattle of .38 Rounds my father Sends flying into the trees. The pistol was my Grandfather's, Brought over from France In 1947. My father cries As he pulls the trigger Over and over Sporatically, Like a Sung Tong, His eyes wild, Darting side to side In milky blue trails Back and forth And up and down Across the dark Chasms of his Eye sockets. When the chambers Of his firearm Run dry he fills them From the box He took from my basement, In his old house, Where he stockpiled Ammunition for Twenty two years. I've learned to stand east Of my father when I make the visits Expected of children When their parents Are old and trapped In the recesses of Their insanity Or nursing home Or empty nest, Because he always Aims west. I wait for tonight's Box to be empty, Then slowly walk To where my father Is huddled, Clutching the pistol Like a teddy bear. He is breathing heavy, And has **** himself. He hears me coming, Turns, and smiles Upon recognition. "I got em good mikey, Got good, not taking My land from ME Mickey, never going Blow south, See it?" I pull the pistol I've Brought from my waistband, The one my father, Gregory Bishop, Gave me on my Eighteenth birthday. The weight in my hand Is deafening, The illegal ivory Is seamless And cold against My palm. I raise my arm, Aim, And pull the trigger.

THE TORCH
Can you hear the wheels of the carriage, as they hasten along the stony tracks of Anglican countryside? Oh, deviant highwaymen, you are concealed by damp foliage, and I have not yet reduced the heat. I fully appreciate those discussions where connection to other realms freely occurs without inhibition. Oh protector of the commonwealth, I long for your parliamentary executions.

Cromwellian Indulgences
Pink is the color of spring flowers. Pink is the color of the raincoat. Pink is the color of strawberry milk. And pink is the color of my shirt. Everything has to do with the color of pink. And one last thing, pink is the color of my heart that loves me. That's why i still love pink so much because it's my favorite color of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Anonymous. 10/21/2016.
