THE DYSLEXIC NIGHT

Back in the first millennium,
Putting the world to rights,
There lived a king called Arthur
With a band of gallant knights.

They did things democratically,
Seated round a table.
Although the lines are slightly blurred
Between true fact and...

Paradise lost. War drums.

ARE YOU FROM THE ZOO TOO?

At the zoo
trapped at the zoo
with nary a sky of blue
just sienna brown
and looking down
never seeing past the next dawn
and never looking back at each morn
