I did this poem in the spirit of poetic licence, having but a sketchy knowledge of the town mentioned
I have not specified a time setting, leaving it open to interpretation, I only know of the place by mention
from another souper, I hope the good people of Panecea, take it with a pinch of salt, and I hope to make
a visit just to check the town out for real.'
Feel the country feel.. hear the laughter; the sporadic kssh as the ring pulls go,
as beer; ginger and also popcorn flow, hard seats under a half galvanised roof, movies from Hollywood play to an audience of fireflies and ernest working peoples minds, sultry air is as sluggish as the creek just out of town, barbecues are a'waiting their heyday in Panacea Florida, as the postman tries to outrun his own autos dust cloud, I muse on the strength of humanity and the pitfalls of existence, the world is a million miles off, yet also exists just heartbeats away.'
