Views in Verse on ‘political correctness’



Time and Space

Political correctness
The enlightenment of our age
A Proustian exercise 
In ritual disdain
As with ‘Christmas in our schools’
We’re judged to be such fools
For calling out 
Such ill-informed refrain

Who are these backroom idealists
Masquerading as realists
Their intentions seem to hide
Their common sense
Our cultures develop
In their own time and space
Without a need 
For cavalier pretense

Notwithstanding…
The norm must not be
Simply a veil, well designed,
To hide the rank exclusive
Moreover a platform
With adequate time and space
To be judged...
‘Authentically’ inclusive
