Political Correctness ...
handcuffs that restrain
until the executioner arrives

People may demand,
Political correctness;
But I will not bow.
Haiku
Opinions sanitized
Freedom of gagged speech
Trespassers legalized
Patriots criticized
What values do we teach?

As always
The tyrant
Wants to silence and oppress
By whatever means,
Even political correctness.
W.A CHOLT. Copyright Fergal O Reilly. 2018
If you want you and me to connect,
be politically always correct.
If you call a spade "spade",
then you've not made the grade.
So I'm sorry — we must disconnect.

Annoyed with politicians
Not normal thank God!!!
Three dead cops…
our thoughts and prayers
Will we ever learn,
what will make us care
The end will not come,
as false prophecy ordains
In political correctness,
our blood will drain
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)
Do you like
knowing
or the idea
of knowledge
The pretense
of perception
or a wellspring
sublime
Political
correctness
or the search
for a moonbeam
Relighting
your way
as you glow
— in its shine
(The New Room: August, 2025)
Tired
Of political correctness
Cultural awareness
Sensitivity.
Tired of everything
Being an excuse
A syndrome
A disability.
Tired of a society that's
Thin-skinned
Entitled
Oblivious.
The constant bombardment
Leads to indifference
At best.
Tired.
Political correctness…
the new dirty word
Meaning perverted,
excuses now heard
It masks and it covers,
what it most tries to hide
As it preys and then smothers
—with the vilest of lies
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2016)
Married to correctness,
divorced from the ideal
The truth becomes enigma,
veracity to steal
Facts bury in self interest,
the cheaters run and hide
All trysts a fated exercise
—philandering with lies
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2016)
Layers
Strip away the superficial.
Place political correctness aside.
Forgive hurts of the past.
Erase all tension and harsh feelings.
Seek thoughts of love and understanding.
This is what you’ll find.
I’m you. You’re me.
We are the same
In truth, there isn't a divide.
MOTHER
People often cry
And ask when does life begin?
Does the answer lie
With clinical exactitude?
With religious dogmatism?
With legal certitude?
With political correctness, or other?
No, the simple fact is that
Life begins with the word mother
Spin, spin is no sin they say
Political correctness ,must win the day
Group think of politicians who claim
to know best
Conform,conform, be subject to their will
is always their quest
These limousined elite ,
the subject of my political tale
Enfranchisement and freedom
has , and will always prevail
Spin, spin is no sin they say
Political correctness ,must win the day
Group think of politicians who claim
to know best
Conform,conform, be subject to their will
is always their quest
These limousined elite ,
the subject of my political tale
Enfranchisement and freedom
has , and will always prevail
Political correctness prevails
words dissemble & dissimulate,then
lose their meaning in semantic sounds.
Decadent hedonism,attired in faded
blue jeans,with fundamentalist fury
points its finger here,there everywhere
and for the past apologises yet…. fails,
Alice in Wonderland has
come to pass, but can never last.
I
She was a prophetess
Dealing with vision, words
Then came political correctness
Some tongues are incarcerated
II
Have you paid (absurd)
For your every word
Some want you "wrong"
Others say, "Go along"
III
Dr. King used diction
Minus hate, violent action
So did Diedrich Bonhoeffer
What would you offer?
Astronauts sleep like bats
Hanging from the ceiling in bags
But this does not tell us about astro-cats
Do they sleep in cots made of rags?
What about astro-dogs and astro-pigs?
Are their bunks teeny or the biggest of the bigs?
Has there yet been an astro-horse?
Political correctness says there should be one of course.
Valued clients, we have listened
and have taken on-board
your concerns
regarding the political correctness
of this our store.
Thus we are now a Gun-Free Zone,
and are confident that the notices
on our front doors will dissuade law breakers,
will make us much less vulnerable
from attacks by gun totting maniacs.
Please do bring the kids.
What we once called a gypsy moth
Will get another name;
In caterpillar form, as well,
Its fate will be the same.
For “gypsy” is derogatory
And the name offends.
Political correctness means
That what is hurtful ends.
Old habits don’t die easy deaths
So many still will claim
That gypsy moths are being drawn
Like you-know-whats to flame.
Add colour to a bunch of expensive waste, Its still rubbish
to rescue a prey from its determined predator create an exit
in one cubicle is a hungry snake and a well nurtured fish
to suggest fairness in this scene, we stubbornly close it
one is feasted upon for another to have a nice dish
yet for political correctness we look away to the opposite.
("Blue Egg in Red Sea", 2020, original oil)
According to our betters,
The Karens who rule the internet,
We should all be aware enough by now
To know what is expected of us,
And so suitably clothed
In political correctness
Never offend again.
In this way each generation
Will leap and bound
Ever adapting
To the latest trend
All together now
In harmony all
Flotsam on a tide.

Poetry and Freedom
A poet is still free to write about what they choose.
Come now, what do we have to lose?
Poetry~ one of the last bastions to be free.
With political correctness on the raging warpath!
After all words with mendacious audacity.
To steal words from group-think and rob us of poetic individuality!

Dear Archie,
It's best you find your bunker
The world as we know it
Has certainly gone asunder
Political correctness
Don't it make you wonder
If we should be taking names
And writing down their numbers
Oh and Archie,
Lucky now your six feet under
Out of lightenings range
And all the man made thunder
Those were the days
We could laugh like murder
At each other
Goodbye Archie bunker
