Pilate washing his hands<\/p><\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Do you (wash your hands)<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Do you\u00a0
wash your hands
in these trying times<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

of the politricking
not just from those
financially ahead
at the royal feeding trough<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

there are soothsayers
and clever-dicks and all
those who phone in
incessantly to radio stations
and pen social media epics<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Do you\u00a0
wash your hands<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You who are
Unemployed and Unwashed
(even Poor and Unshaven)
Malnourished and Starving
Unhoused and Landless
and Illiterate too to boot<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Do you
wash your hands
of Gender-Based Violence\u00a0
and all that goes with it
(is there a Gender Audit)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Are you stocking up
on toilet paper and batteries
and baked beans and the like
perhaps even travelling points<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

as you daily go
from your dark place
to light<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

as you daily go
from the ghetto
of your mind
to that of others<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Do you
wash your hands
of all of this<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

and look at yourself<\/p>\r\n
