The British flag an emblem, a standard, a symbol, a tradition, a culture, a legacy, a family, a value, an attitudes
Its meanings depend on who you are, where you are and the reality from which you view.
It flaps a message from the top of its flagpole which can sound eerie, scary chilly comforting or alienating.
The pole may be greasy if you try to climb up.
The British flag is a flag of union. Who does it unite?
Does it let you know whose tribe you want to belong to?
The fences you can sit on are numbered.
In an age of electronic wonders corners are being fought.
History invisibly washes through the body politic permeating the present in the way we look, see, smell and in countless ways we will never know so readily. |
