By the way, I almost forgot to ask you: have you ever read 'Walking To Santiago' by a poet called Neil Curry? I think it a fantastic collection - it shows real dedication to walk that pilgrim trail. They say if you're going to write about a river you should swim in it first, but that's nothing compared with walking all those miles. I think you'd really like Curry's book.
Tory gvt policy has a lot to answer for on every level! The idea that you can cut benefits and tax to the rich at the same time is just fundamentally wrong. When I realised the Tories were traditionally bigots, racists, homophobes, sexists, and the like - I turned to the left as a beautiful compassionate emotion to explore. A more fair, free and equal society seems to preclude all manner of Tory gvt policy.

Thanks for your comment about syllable count, John.
I'd be interested to know what the actual "UK death Count" is as a direct result of Tory government policy!
A perfectly measured Haiku in terms of the syllable count. 😎

I don't recollect a poetry book of that name, but I'll check it out. Thanks.
I have never swum in the River Loire, and what a shame having walked its full length!
The only time I got wet -soaking wet- was on my way into Nantes in the pouring rain!
Best wishes with your studies.
