Hope

Why stay silent
in the face of art?
Why put away that spray-paint?

Between the shelves
of history and religion
someone is vandalising the books

but there are moments
when it’s only right
To level things

as far as the crypt
and build your edifice anew
Some things go

as badly as they possibly could
and then you see hope
scrawled on a ruined wall
