I have composed a poem.
It is entitled:
The figtrees in the Alameda gardensBradford Bulls, stampeding onwards
Towering Odsal Stadium, their home, as wide as
Nigel Wood's underpants yet beautiful like
Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, whoever she may be.
at once fragile, like a paper aeroplane,
dogging, swooping and soaring skywards,
they undertake a transformation, by an invisible hand,
as two doors open, one more closes
once a temple to chicken madras,
now led by the king, Robbie Paul,
no room for satanic rites, or ventriloquism,
just the periodic table of emotion and existentialism
like a Narwhal resting
on HB pencils.
I thank you.
Goodnight.
