chew nothing much but embers of prole-whispers
O march out, like human

run a bit, like human beings, to go down on
one knee, like human beings, to lift their
little deadly stick & make

(I still do not comprehend your apologue)
is really existing satire
or to hear the nearness of muted persons
yours sincerely, a raging quiver asking
what is hopeless work?
is someone who continues to believe in work
usually fantasising about work, giving a lot of energy
to pursuits & to have a deep desire for its partnership
crumbles to a heap

to a union of lanyards wrapped knotted

& you a Workforce Reporting Manager
previously Employee Relations Adviser
previously Recruitment & Operations Adviser,
whilst completing your magister scientiae
in Human Resource Management
worked as a Rewards & Systems Manager
wherein you produced salary models
forecasted & made recommendations
based on organisational performances & external trends
enabled senior management to conduct staff pay reviews
with the provision to implement agreed salary reviews

a toothed, funnel-like sucking mouth
in the continual exercise of spinning straw to gold,
you breed law to hang on to that which they have
in its bones:
Those who will oppose you are the comfortable ones, those with a shallow desire to hang on to that which they have, those who are ready to yield the outer reaches of their territories, spiritual & material, for a quiet life. Such people will not bear examination beneath the torch of a rigorous national debate.
The fundamental mistake is to look to compulsion to do the work of freedom. The State, the engine of compulsion, cannot create what can only be created by individuals acting on one another.
a life concentrically turning

Everything is automated.’

as it clanks in a humming scathe
moot the vein & clock with a throat full
of blooded padlocks that is proof enough
it never counts feral under the baton rounded
to a cost pride a large bolus; its texture marbled
taking the charge of a lifetime of disposals,
a contract for services made
shrink-wrapped to a raincurtain of pinnace
chokes the sky & crosses it through
to an uptake floating scale a matured chime
locking day & night out now livid
in cellulose its orbital home
moving stupid liquid forever
in the curing of sleep,
a voice sealed in a ringed outcry
where no jobs run amok over the proud varicose
fat on sun-loungers, to watch the juvenile record lash out
now to watch the choppy sink in badlands
the saturnalia so eat the chicken wings
gilded in a better hour
