poor Gordon

has his work has been used as prop for conservative - reactionary? - art-politics

        In    our    time    it    smacks

       Of    impiety    to     opine

       Gordon     Walter's    art    no

       Pinnacle    to    honour    artists

       With    a     prize     aberration

       Of    private    patronage    that

       Detests      radical     criticism

       In    art    by    artists    who

       Despise    the    market    &

       Hypocrisies    of    church   

       &    state   a    sanitized

       Bland     apolitical    version

       Of    his    art    is    lauded

 

       Key-stone    of    our    culture's

       Arch   that    no    gumment    in-

       Quiry    can    dislodge    even

       As    it    crumbles
