There's never no war. They just move it around.

That last lingering line is brilliant. I almost heard the cuckoo.
Great poem, Di_Hard. Great pick of the day. Sets spring into summer up nicely with a terrific pen portrait.

You wouldn't be the first person to write a trilogy in five parts.
Bang-on about those late teenage years. Bang-on about a lot of things. Just been chatting outside a building in the north of the city with a quirky,...
