Beyond King and Crumpet (Uncoronation Sonnet) | Visvavictor
“When a philandering ass is declared head of state, and the other woman sleeps her way to the throne, it’s not a moment of national pride, it’s an outlandish declaration of national pestilence.”
“Beyond King and Crumpet
(Uncoronation Sonnet)
There’s not one but two UKs –
one is United Kingdom,
where animals worship a king,
another is United Kin-dom,
where humans live as kin.
Storm’s coming! Huts and homes
of the humble will thrive,
while castles and palaces
of thieves will crumble.
Either we are explorers
of equality and dignity, or
we are crown worshipping animal.
Putting all kings and queens to bed,
Citizens must come out and work the soil.
Enough chasing the parade of dead meat,
March your own parade, tackling turmoil!
Crown, cross and rigid constitution,
Mindlessness has taken many a form.
Beyond the fetish of king and crumpet,
Beckon the rays of an honorable dawn.”
