NB.   This is a topical poem about a particular case.  It might not be appropriate for an international site but for the moment here it is. 

The Poisoned Lunch This story packs a deadly punch When guests all died from poisoned lunch A plan to kill police did track A deadly punch this story packs They sent her down, her crime her will Police did track a plan to kill “I’m innocent”, she told the crown Her crime her will, they sent her down She said it was an accident She told the crown, “I’m innocent” But justice is as justice does An accident she said it was At this tale’s end, let's think on this That justice does as justice is We’re sure the truth they apprehend Let’s think on this, at this tale’s end

Tom I took it down and then changed my mind- I didn’t realise how the website worked and that it would be shown on the most recent poems. I’m sorry about that. ( this was after a some criticism which I wanted to consider. I’m not completely at home in this virtual world yet). Thanks for letting me know.
