Description
Read the poem ‘BBC Four’ below:
the Aztecs invented peanut butter
brown on white bread in my palms
who knew the body of Christ
could fit in a clenched fist
sunday has always been a day of rest
long cans long livers long fingers in my throat
ads for thick eyebrows tanned skin full lips
the colour ‘nude’ does not apply to me
in church I stick out my tongue
I cannot decide whether to spit or swallow
I wonder if that is why Christ is so thin
the Islamic threat
why do people kill in the name of religion?
blood on the face of our saviour
red on white like jam on bread
