The EDL

The English Defence League

is unwelcome here,

their unwelcome collection

of sunburnt flesh,

covering all of the reds

of the colour chart.

 

These hateful racists

making chaos,

and they forget that

this is our town,

and while we do welcome strangers

these strangers are dangerous

and faceless.

 

Okay I get it,

a healthy society

relies on free speech,

and racists have rights

just like anyone,

which is why I don’t mind them coming,

and why I’m compelled

to march out

against them.

 

And yet we get bad press,

tarred with the same bad brush

what what

the fuck

are you talking about?

 

Me,

I have my friends,

and I don’t think Neil

is a hooligan;

Amanda doesn’t even eat

animals.

 

What,

you think Dave Ford

is going to punch someone?

You’re more deluded

than Tommy Robinson.

 

Basically

all I’m saying

is LOVE;

believe what you want,

but be nice to other people,

bake bread and break it

and share it wherever

it needs to be shared,

and if you want to act divisive

then find your own society;

 

muslims aren’t the enemy,

you are.
