The news was interesting. Let's see where this goes now.

All I know is this: apathy is dead. As in not cool. As in unacceptable. If you're 18-25 and from the UK or a Commonwealth nation (yes, you can vote) then in the name of whatever you call upon, REGISTER TO VOTE. It takes, like, 5 minutes max. and there is no excuse whatsoever. you don't need an opinion right now, and I won't prescribe one. Just register. You can have one on 8 June (if you need time off work, book it now).

And turn up. Please.

Anyway, back to the poetry.

Change

Pennies still cost more than they're worth
so you'll forgive me for not standing
with you in heat or sleet begging
for change they never wanted to keep anyway.

They will claim they did you favours
while you think your sweat had earned it while they continue
to dash the drying root and fruit of your labour.
