"Let me escape this phoney nation, perhaps to Canada where people still seem to know what’s in the real news, or Denmark and Greenland." Maybe sums the States up at the mo. Bizarre beyond words.
It's best not to let Trumpenstein get to you/Alfred. He's a clown masqerading as the US President. He's now threatening Putin with tariffs if no peace deal is reached with Ukraine within 50 days. Of course, the Ruskies just laugh at DT's rhetoric...

'It was fun looking down at the wriggley Wye
from the top of the drop – we were way up high..'
A highly visual poem and skilfully done as you have referenced the walk from the child's point of view. We easily forget the mismatch...

"Can you die inside a dream?
And will you be found
inside the layers of a tiger’s bite?"

So skilfully done, Rhiannon. I enjoyed this one, in particular.
