Christ.

Christ




He crawled up from the dirt

One mother no shirt

and he kept all along

the stars were his song

And by each passing time

was no reason nor rhyme

he carefully concocted the sum

that lingered like voodoo plum

so you can scratch where you are wrong

For you to be his song

So he kept on with digging

No sense in his winning

the layers were peeled back

Nothing was called to his task

the rosehips and meadow sweet

burned from the sky

the stars were his eyes

drawing breath from on high

the acorns, the chestnuts scattered on the ground

the squirrels, the magpies leaping all around

the crunch of the fauna under an unsocked foot

the whispers, the urgency riddled with muck

for you to be stripped bare

no sense in the notion to share

it was his mother's due care

he is not pyrite masquerading as gold

his story will always and forever be told

he joined in with humanity and coughed up dirt

never tiring, never shaking, fully alert

shaking the ground like a dream

shaking his wounds like an overflowing stream

Oh what good did it seem

he was crucified, one of a kind

no human left behind

in this servant man

poured out for every fan.

So in that golden, honey ambered sunset

let me tell you a tale you shall not forget

He was one and only the great.

To behold the glory of this servant king

All blessings and glory to him do we sing.

PIP should be paid in vouchers?

"PIP should be paid in vouchers"  I'll explain in detail why this is a bad idea, but can I ask why all the solutions to the imagined mass fraud is to hurt disabled people more in the process? I'm sure some people think they're doing the right thing, many probably understand fine well it would hurt disabled people and they have forgotten they can become disabled at any point in their lives.  Instead of starting with how it would hurt us (disabled people) I'll explain how it would hurt the state.  It would cost MILLIONS to set up a whole IT system, set up partnerships with business, the amount of civil servants that would need to oversee invoices would just be immense. It would cost more than it would ever be intended to save, sort of like the current assessment system that sees tax payers cash endlessly going to tribunals because they've refused a disabled person help, 2/3rds of all claimants that take their case to full tribunal win. It again costs the sta...

PIP and how society treats the disabled.

  Maybe the real problem with society is that people don’t think disabled people should be allowed any joy. They have to stay in their homes, moping, being sad, and not having any fun. Because everyone else is really fucking miserable. Therefore, we have to be too. And this is why people have so much of a problem with what disabled people spend their money on. “ If they are spending my hard-earned cash, then they need to be miserable” “ They can’t have nice hair or lashes” heaven forbid a disabled person makes an effort with their appearance. “ They can’t drink or smoke” but what if that is a coping mechanism for them to stay alive? “ They can’t have holidays! I can't afford a holiday, so why should they get one!” People forget that PIP is not an out-of-work benefit; it is there to cover the costs of things associated with disability and independence. People also forget that disabled people may have a working partner, families who give them money, inherita...

The Prime Ministers Wife

GOD FORBID A WOMAN HAS THE BODY OF A WOMAN: This is the thing when women come into the spotlight: their bodies and looks are judged more harshly than anything else. Marie-France has been dragged over all social media platforms for the dress she wore, her figure, and her face. Am I a fan of her husband? No. But why do we treat the wives and partners of politicians like they’re only around to look good? From what little I know of Marie-France, she has undergone a double mastectomy, birthed three children, and is a successful businesswoman. How dare people reduce her to nothing more than her looks? The patriarchy is alive and well, and to see fellow women joining in on ridiculing her is fucking disgusting.
