Listen to poem:
Shibboleth For the Living
Shibboleth for the Living
David J Walker
This Spring is for you
And for those who
will know
For the first time
what Spring means
The first sweet gasp of breath
That some will know
and some will death
A shibboleth
for the living
I am thinking of moving
to Holly Wood where
Everyone is dying
and leaving a
legacy of
short-lived hypocrisy
