Trump woke up and thought, “Holy shit, I control the world,” long before he became President. For a long time he must’ve felt like a king, firing people and judging women’s beauty on stage, being revered by C-list celebrities and appearing as a cameo in all the hit films. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’d…
The late, great Leonard Cohen wrote, on the topic of the second world war in America, “Here we grew up with toy whips. Early warning against our future leaders, the war babies.” Obama’s farewell speech, which was truly American in all it’s open, heartfelt honesty, created a stir in those that look, terrified, into the glowing…
Found in the courtyard of a Catholic church. To the right of this there was a large shrine. There was only one piece of this board and it sat against a very grey, dilapidated backdrop. It was quite eerie, definitely beautiful.
Jeremy Corbyn was slammed by the media this week for suggesting a maximum wage cap. Corbyn always seems to be on the wrong end of the media. “He’s totally nuts,” everyone says. “What an idiot,” they say. “Bless him,” they sigh. And they’re right.

FOR A MAN WITH NO FINGERS, TIME IS IMMEASURABLE. Time with a capital T. Time in italics. Time, whispers the dealer to the school-child. It’s the eighth of January, the Christmas tree has gone, it’s raining and foggy outside, I’m stood waiting for the bus and I wonder if anyone else has ever waited for…
“Close your eyes, son.” The young man closed his eyes. “Take a deep breath.” The young man did. “You are stood on the walls of our city, our home. Beneath your feet is the bulwark of our people, stone built higher and higher, mortar mixed with the blood and tears of our woman, our children. Our…
