ekphrastic for George Grosz’ 1928 ‘Der Agitator’


tongues out, thick lips

thin moustaches


a drumroll, iron boots

for pinhead glory


deep pockets for applause

corks popped

trumpet for the fool


how this one wears the medals!

megaphone, rattle

swastika too, what teeth!


grey men, clowns’ noses

cartoonly, they need him

he will make the grey spectacle


bums and tongues out

old flags fly new

teeth almost bite

little jagged jobs


ra ra now all ready for

the carving of the bird
