Christmas

Too old for cold,I stand, now ,against the hedge,
Watching the snowflakes in the glare of neon street lights.
Darkness has come early,and I think of country uplands and huddled sheep.
On Salisbury Plain,shepherds watched their flocks
Just as in Bethlehem two thousand years before,
And then,exactly when?
“Between the wars”,it stopped. Now we know there is no “Between the wars”.
And who decided
To cull the sheep and shepherds and the space for kindness ?
Now that same Plain still exists,but banned
And closed to human-kind,
For bombs ,not wombs
Nor for birth of lamb ,nor gypsy child ,nor Saviour
Where would He go today?

Things are dying off

Old drawing

Will patients kindly sign this form before dying I doubt it.Is it an order or a question?

Please die before we change the sheets on your bed otherwise we may run out Anyone else mad around here? We’ll run out

Do not die during the Consultant’s visit

I bleeding well will.

We have no Chaplains.They were privatised Who took them over,Satan!

That explains this madness called Brexit

So all prayer is DIY, And is all DIY is prayer?

Die in your sleep if you can

Give me the poison now please Keep your iPhones in a vault not here Is that in the horse?.

Please don’t ask a person with severe heart failure to close the window by your bed

I was only helping them on their way No sadism in here Take pleasure in our violence, kill and wound

We do not need the News blasted from your phone Boris killed.

Why have the weather forecast edn when you are dying,,It’s a month before your burial

Just a bad habit, as Thomas Aquinas said When the PM arrives we will all cry in one voice Alleluya

Is he God now?
