Thanks. It was fun. There'll be no sequel though. I'm feeling very prosaic all of a sudden.
@das Schixie - hmm, probably not. I'm not seeking publisher approval / distribution, and it's verse, albeit 'poetic' in places, so unlikely to gain attention in a contemporary poetry competition unless verse is suddenly in vogue. I wouldn't know about that. #drainageinthelowerfield I think it's steadily finding its way into the hands of the primary intended audience, so putting it into a subjective quality comparison in the wider field of poetry seems a little irrelevant, and I'd rather spend the £25 entry fee on a bottle of single malt that's been discounted in the run up to Christmas.
