Stu - I've worked with Andrew and I'm sure he'd be delighted to have rubbed off on you. Lovely imagery here, with tones of R.C. doctrines lurking. Nice one.

cheers david. again, im not entirely sure what it is. ive been reading a book called physical by Andrew McMillan and its very erotic and quite dark. I think this may be rubbing off on me, if you pardon the pun.

incidentally, i read a fantastic line today in a book by andrew mcmillan and can find no better place to quote it than here...
'when he came he made a sound that still hatches in my throat each morning'
nothing to do with your poem but a fine line i think you'll agree.

As a Spurs fan of 50+ years, like Graham, I am hoping for an unlikely Leicester slip-up. But if it can't be the Mighty Spurs as champions then I root for the Foxes.

Angela,
A lovely `breath of fresh air` antidote to a lot of the
`nobody knows the troubles I`ve seen` stuff we`ve been getting on here lately...thanks.

You'll be delighted to see that Leicester survive
If only via the effort of an outrageous dive
I for one will be happy to see your team croak
If we can get three points tonight up at Stoke!

During this unfashionable club's unexpected success, there
have been a number of 1-0 scorelines - hence my
interest in seeing whether it would continue against West
Ham. I discovered later the score had turned to 2-1
in favour of the latter club - only for Leicester to get a
very late penalty to draw level.
To be fair, as far as footie is concerned, I'm more of an Arsenal fan...and that's only because my sister and her hubby follow the club.

Honey drips, parted lips; heat and sensuality, works for me, like it.

Lovely subtlety and turn of phrasing make this a must-see. I like the idea of voyeurism and suburban mayhem, almost a sense of gratification. I'm with you all the way.

thanks for comments Lynn and Wolfie.
My aim with this was to give a feminine credence to the mystic east (if that actually exists today) and maybe point out the threat of western influence or the benefits of it in its bringing women's plight into the open. A complex issue and not to be taken lightly. Prophecy would fit in certainly , and I wanted to indicate a sense of history spreading back and then meeting an obstacle. I think a lot of problems today are the result of a sort of buckling of opposing forces mostly subconscious with all sorts of mayhem as a result.
I hope that does not confuse - it almost confused me!

cheers guys. i had a workmate who went to cambodia a few years back and encountered some pretty dark stuff there. men living in hotels (for fuck all money), hiring young girls every night (again, for no money) and drinking the place dry. its a big culture over there, or it was. tragic really.
joyti - you are bang on! he's the worst one.

I'm crash landing on your profile page Stu. I came in low to avoid detection and now I walk unaided to meet and greet a poet whose comments always cheer me up. I'm flattered that you consider The Boghole a triumph. I love the word, it has a Seamus Heaney credibility for me, and of course can be a rectal equivalent. I never once thought of cancer but in this context would be about as scary as you could get.
Thanks again. Ray.

Exceptional, Stu. A crushing of innocence or at least its conversion into something sullied like the history therein. I was thinking of The Deer Hunter.

ive read this three times now and each time i can see something different. i can totally see cancer, i can totally see writers block and im imagining some train ride to hell. i think this is a triumph. and now all i can think is how wonderful the word boghole is for the rectum.

Why can't I write something frivolous and trivial and everyday or pseudo impressive or blatantly expressive

Cheers Stu. Yes, that line does hit out a bit with the consonants, thanks. A masculine feminine crossroads with a barrier, is that It? That line you quote is a classic.
The idea of a sort of dry cough orgasm appeals!
I might suggest a book to check out (booker prize winner) I'm reading called The Narrow road to the deep north by Richard Flanagan about the Burma railway.
all the best.
