Tongues

If you really knew how I felt
You wouldn’t need to be here asking
Those questions
Those irritating questions, moving in metaphors
Speaking in tongues
Your gunboat diplomacy
You accuse me of heresy, of being irreverent
My opinions irrelevant, when I smile at your smiles
When you’re speaking in tongues
As we move to a stalemate
You say a contract’s a contract
& this is unnegotiable
I question your morality, you question my reality
You’re speaking in tongues
We are speaking in tongues
Am I deaf because I cannot comprehend?
Though I try I just cannot understand
Your entrenched opinions
On the border of arrogance
Dug in against the compromise
A position indefensible, your actions illogical
You’re speaking in tongues
You swear contradictions
Your tedious monologues, wielding authority
Demanding subservience, demanding
I make your sense
Demanding speaking in tongues
(Dedicated to Rupert Perry, MD EMI UK)
