Poem
of the week: Importents by Naomi Foyle
 
It was a  wonderful
spring morning,
Mirth and merry making and  pictures
and jubilation all through the streets;
He was a lone watcher, of the sky 
and starlings in flocks, perhaps a lesson
for mankind unity is strong beyond
your  bone strength;
election campaigns,
acoustics, deafening all around, rains
and floods, devastating, sudden roll over
of birds  and starlings,
in dangerous roots
roads, paths, taken by leaders, groups,
perhaps stampede for birds and insects;
stampede too strong for these, 
yet inevitable, bleeding 
and obstructed 
passage ruin starlings abominably;
sudden sweep of bodies, turned down
for  them very
difficult  to stay on;
 A pity and pathetic
spectacle
The roads overloaded with.
