Invective against vituperation
people demanding we begin to fear sing their own charge
invading us like an army of clerks weary of life
with much ado making an echo into a salvo
may they die in it and the quiet come home safe
Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Monday 3 December 1666.
