I love the Pallette poem, a well deserved featured poem...

Although i like the poem about the tree,
who really wants to be a table.
I think of my tree of life.

Although i like the sounds of a carpenter,
i wouldn't want to be his wife.
He might make me into a table.

So i thankyou for entertaining me,
but now i really must leave as i'm
in danger of becoming a table.

Or is it just a fable?

Hey Hannah, I love this poem. It is very atmospheric: the joy of colour against the drab, harsh, inhospitable background of this urban churchyard. Your eyes were painted, almost like rose-tinted specs giving you a brighter perspective on an otherwise sombre place with a sombre name, though you don't menton it: Blackley: the old ICI dyeworks.
favourite lines: we watched the stars switch on, writing the dyeworks into the sky.
Julian
