Living Conditions (Free verse) by Christof

Dark October days, When it seems the clouds Have sucked the light into their cheeks, Always feel like this: The year's blind slope Towards winter, The burrowing mole In its grope Towards the warm womb Of the earth, The improbability of the sun And our place in it.

It's a weird case - one TV personality, Ulrika Jonsson, writes her biography and says that at 19 she was raped by another TV presenter, who she refuses to name. The press leak the news that it is a guy called John leslie (which Jonsson neither confirms nor denies, as she says she isn't interested in retributiona nd just wants to egt on with her life) and suddenly about 10 women are saying that he raped them too. Knowing the English press, very little of any of this may be true, though there's the equal chance that it's all true. Either way, the guy's career has been destroyed even though he's never been charged with anything.
