STOP PRESS

I've just won third prize in Lancaster's Spotlight Club Poetry Slam! More

 

This website is under construction... but it always will be...

here's one of my scribbles to keep you amused:

 

She stands over there

where

in her lair

she snares hares

indeed I swear

her beauty's rare

like mrs blair's

her nostrils flare

her cheeks are bare

just like a mare

her questions dare

answerers ne'er

feel but pared

and mighty quare

eyeballs tared

AD 99 yare

I was there

Oh... Miss P

NOTES 'quare' = 'queer', i.e. 'strange', 'tared' = 'torn', 'yare' = 'year' [necessary poetic licence]

This is a tribute to a barrister who represented Lancashire County Council at the Lancaster City Council Local Plan Inquiry, 1998-1999. One of the planning magazines described her as "an incisive cross-examiner who is extremely efficient at marshalling facts and arguments". Those opposed to her clients weren't that impressed.
