Godot's Ghost

I've read Waiting for Godot about half-a-dozen times and seen it twice on stage many years ago.

Whom Byron claimed one of his poems was written for. Not this one, because it's mine, but it's still for the esoteric few. Image author's own

Your poem

Posted on Wed, 18 Nov 2020

reminded me of a visit to the Jurong Bird Park in Singapore one day, over 40 years ago.

Monsoon season, I remember it well. Half the broadsheet back page of the Straits Times would be dedicated to forecasts attempting to predict at what...

striking imagery here.

Do you mean "algæ-d" at line 8?

Your poem finishes very strongly with these lines.

this has touches of MR James about it: something off, glimpsed out of the corner of your eye. Bags of atmosphere, you have a sure touch when generating a sense of place.

Sound.

I loved this Sean. It made me laugh and when it's dark those who make us laugh loudest are the best writers of all.
