Give Her Back: A Sonnet For Liberty
To Glucksmann, this no longer fits with Trumpâs current policies. The U.S. president is taking harsh action against immigrants, among other things. Since his inauguration on January 20, thousands of migrants have been arrested and deported to their countries of origin. The U.S. rapprochement with Russia in the context of the war in Ukraine is also likely part of the background to Glucksmannâs dema...

They sent Santa to Rwanda
He didnât want to go
The reindeer got deported too
Thatâs the last theyâll see of snow
In attempting to circumvent border control
It was deemed an illegal immigrationÂ
Caught in the lights of the aerial patrol
With no proof of destinationÂ
Now heâs in a detention place
The subject of arrest
Theyâve digitised (and 3D ...

Rule Britannia
Britain.
Find an island teetered
On frightened migrants, barrels of oil,Â
And African diamonds.
Find a child swathed in red water,Â
defiled by the law of the man up top,
pockets heavy, conscience ready
to burn and claw at power
To grovel, devour
To fester in Westminster
the cries of innocentsÂ
talked around, spat on
With self-serving ambivalence
A game of bla...

When your soul returns to Ras Dashen
When your soul returns to Ras Dashen many years from now,
Time will stop to acknowledge your final descent.
Time will give no pardon. Time will take no vow.
As a child again, you will walk through the land.
At the mountain foot olive trees are the same;
They were guarding your peace from below and above.
When the world seemed unfair â this is where you came,
This is where you...

What I Left Behind
My dreams locked behind
A thousand doors,
My genuine voice,
Life without remorse.
Self-portrait thatâs free
Of the wrinkled despair,
Rhetorical questions
Of how and where.
Whimsical, drunken
Scent of the hope,
A love letter
Burnt in the last envelope.
I stepped on this land
And time ceased to exist.
Since then I had wondered
Whose image it is.

A Better Life
Â
The car jolted.
Her weary eyesÂ
opened slowly
Like mechanical shuttersÂ
Â
Flickering through trees,
the dying sunlight
stabbed at her sight
with golden shards.
Â
Mouth dry
Limbs weak
Clothes damp
Daddy?
Â
A stench of sweatÂ
Lingered in tobacco airÂ
Made her cough
Made her gag
Â
Where's Daddy?
she croaked
Muffled laughter
Gon...

Thor (He's A Jolly Good Fellow)
Thor (He's A Jolly Good Fellow)
Another bloody immigrant
has just moved in next door -
heâs North East European
and goes by the name of Thor.
So as good old Mister Farage says
âThere ought to be a law
that stops them coming here
cause we canât take any moreâ.
Heâs got long blonde tussled hair
and a chiselled square jaw
and heâs taking British jobs
at the local Ikea store -
yet all...
