Not in MY Name.
Protesting against the career of Boris Johnson,
First as London Mayor then as the British Prime
Minister responsible for wrecking the economy
and moral standing of his country through Brexit
and the attacks on human rights, merely to foster
his own personal interest. This is a graffiti style
panel slowly created over twelve years of outrage,
anger and growing despair. I do not like this as
a piece of art, but it relates how I feel about the
degradation of my once vibrant country. Sadly it
seems that ugly events create an ugly response. Oh
bring back Atlee and Bevan. Oh bring back the
creative vigour of the 1960`s and the early 2000`s.
This pastel shows the despair I have felt during these dark soulless years.

Driving at Speed Through a German Wood.( Newly Completed Poem).
Sunlight flashing between tall trees
Sudden glints of white steel
That hurt my eyes as I stare through straight lines
Of these sky breaching pine trees.
The flat blue calm of a distant lake
Offers peace where only speed seems relevant
As we climb towards our sunless destination
High above the tree line.
There only the turbulence of rock and cloud await us.
There even the pines seem small.
Driving at speed through a German wood
The living world appears an after thought,
August 30th. - 31st. - September 7th.2022.

After The War, A Child`s View of Events.( Completed Poem).
Our home could no longer contain
The memories we had made there
During the black out
And the years of hopeless waiting,
Even the wind moved on tip toe
Through the rooms and hallway,
And the tick of the clock had muffled itself somehow.
Afraid to make a noise, we played hop scotch in the
street,
Awkwardly balancing on cold bare feet.
Trevor John Karsavin Potter.
August 20th. - September 7th. 2022.
