and all who sail in her.


from the ABC set Doodles

I could recite, hateyouhateyouhateyou
in monotone; a strange, black, funereal

barge of words, bolted together for their
journey. Corroded hull creaks a rolling

rhythm, loose bound rage. But,
don't and sink without a trace.

As usual lena, you pack a punch with very few, excellently chosen words.

Like it;-)

I love the idea of a barge of words Lena

So do I;-) Wish I could do the same with a 'bit of silly'.

Thank you Insert, it just struck me as a fitting image for a stream of invective on a man made route :-) :-) xx
Tina, you are so generous, thank you once again xx
