In light of yesterday's governmental decision that horizontal fracking can go ahead in Lancashire, in a landmark ruling for the UK shale gas industry (https://socialistworker.co.uk/art/434...), I thought I'd post this poem of mine from New Beat Newbie:


FRACK OFF

Fracking, fracking, fracking.
Fucking, fecking fracking.
Shattering the earth.
Damaging. Crack crack cracking.
Disturbing earth's stability
And its inner soul.
Fucking fecking fracking
It's fracking out of control.
No wonder the world's
In such a state,
With tearful floods
At her every gate,
When we keep fucking it up.
Fracking it up.
Cocking it up.
Cracking up.
Cracking the earth, making her roar,
Fucking, fecking fracking. What for?
For the crude of two words
That won't last anyway.
When we've burned all the oil
And are drowned in dismay,
I hope you fuckers
Remember the day,
When we said no to fracking.
No fucking way.
Fuck off
You frackers
With your
Ugly fracas.
Frack and frack,
Frack and frack,
Down and down,
Crude from a crack.
Fracking and fracking
And fracking. Fuck me,
When will people open
Their eyes up and see
What we're still doing
To our once paradise?
Fucking it up,
'Cos car parks are nice,
Just like the cars
That run on the oil,
So Shell will dig wells,
And BP will boil.
Fracking fuckers.
Frack off the lot.
Fuck fracking. Fuck fracking.
And those calling the shots.
Shattering the earth.
Damaging. Crack crack cracking.
Fracking, fracking, fracking.
Fucking, fecking fracking.

My brand new poetry book Underdogs Unite will be released in a few weeks.

Yes, I know you can hardly contain your excitement and are feeling like you’re going to wet yourself on a daily basis until you get your mitts on a copy, but luckily for you, I’m now offering advance pdf and epub copies, so there’s no longer any need for you to change your knickers every day.

If you’d like a copy, just direct message me on Goodreads, or email me at harrywhitewolf@yahoo.co.uk – stating your preferred format.

All I ask in return is an honest review (no matter how short) on Goodreads and/or Amazon.


Here’s the blurb to tell you more:

Harry Whitewolf’s hard-hitting, straight-talking, seventh collection of poetry combines topical anti-establishment and anti-fascist themes with anecdotal reminiscing, personal confessions, and verse about immigration, television, drugs, pubs, cigs and gigs, delivered with Whitewolf’s humorous, playful, passionate and distinctive voice.

Unpretentious and powerful poetry for the underbelly of twenty-first century society.


Many thanks!

Harry.

Attention all underdogs!

Reviewers of advance copies have said:

"This could be the Whitewolf's best book ever...And that's saying a lot as at least 2 of his in the past (Two Beat Newbie and The Road to Purification) are on my all-time-favourites list."

"Harry's writing is a jazzy flow of emotions and empathy for the downtrodden."

"...this collection is far longer than Harry’s previous releases and that is a majorly good thing, it’s like he has stepped up a level and is closer to the famous beat poets of the past...”

"This collection of poems expresses some of the harder questions of our time from the perspective of someone who is brave enough to look into the abyss eye to eye and then see a way out for all of us."

"This is in the top two of my personal Whitewolf countdown."


This has been a public service announcement, monitored closely by a secret faction of the Elite, on behalf of Harry Whitewolf.
