His Foxes Cannot Get Me Now


He can no longer spitefully hiss
The terrible command
For the hook nosed Jew boy
To climb across the room
And into his stinking
Piss stained bed
He can no longer invoke the foxes
To bite at the boy’s ankles or head
He can no longer create nightmare’s
Filled with sheer terror and dread
He can no longer climb
Like an incubus upon the boy’s back
Fetid breath panting on his neck
Arm wrapped tightly around his throat
All this must happen before the boy sleeps
He can no longer implant the thought
That the boy must dream in colour
For those that dream in black and white
He often tells the little boy
Are scared of the nights and what they bring
Now the boy doesn’t have to dream
Of the Paisley pattern to fill his head
And take away the terror of what
Had just happened.

The Protein Man of Oxford Street- Stanley Owen Green.

I wrote this Obituary piece for The Guardian about Stanley Green while I was an undergraduate at Goldsmiths' College.  I contacted The Guardian and asked them if I could submit it for publication. It was sent off to them and I waited in eager anticipation for their reply. It was published on Wednesday January 26th 1994,   the Editor  made no changes or additions except by adding some photographs (the photographs used here are later additions by me): "A Consuming Passion.... Stanley Owen Green who has died aged aged 78, was that tall thin man with steel-rimmed glasses who marched it seemed for an eternity up and down London's Oxford Street. It was his banner that made him famous, held high above his head and proclaiming "LESS LUST FROM PROTEIN" in large white letters. Underneath the banner he endured the taunts of sticky schoolchildren and the spittle of office workers alike, to bring his unique, indeed puzzling message to the people of London. He later wate...

The Roswell Returns

“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” As those words echoed around Mission Control in Houston a round of spontaneous applause broke out across the site and in the control room. There were yelps and hollers of triumph echoing around the whole of NASA that momentous day in July 1969. In the Command Module Michael Collins was monitoring the vital controls that kept it orbiting the Moon. He flipped the carbon dioxide uptake switch, looked at the battery charge meters, oxygen levels and closely watched the radar screen. He sat back in his flight chair and watched the instrumentation flick and whirr. He daren’t relax, he didn’t relax at all. He paid great attention to the radar screen as he was commanded to. He had to monitor it for spooks, intruders or ghosts. He knew he was looking for Foo Fighters. They did show up on radar, aircrews had confirmed that as fact. It was how fast they appeared and disappeared that threw most pilots. There had been warnings by the ...

A Nation Of Revolting Shopkeepers

The Nation of Revolting Shopkeepers. A General Election was called on 12th December 2019 in the wake of constant defeats for the Conservative government. They threw in the towel and admitted defeat in trying to broker an acceptable Brexit deal. A majority anti-EU government was returned: they were The Guardians Of Brexit party. The 48/52 divide had become 30/70. The Guardians Of Brexit stormed into power; standing with the slogan: "We'll see off Johnny Foreigner. Vote for The Guardians of Brexit." They secured a landslide result like Thatcher or Blair many years before them. The UK population was sick of Brexit and had voted for what they perceived was a decisive government that would secure them a speedy exit from the European Union they so wanted. Many of the first referendum voters had thought the UK was instantly out of the EU the very day after the vote on the 23 rd of June 2016 and resented this election, only the really motivated anti EU voters mob...
