position as yesterday screaming I would like to know more about that position. This way, seems too distant. 
politics into ears half deafened by Good image with the politics.. maybe be more specific? You have specific Jim Morrison instead of "music", so why not specific politics? But only a minor suggestion, still works quite well in this context.

cliche my forte
