Barely literate, and not rated, Trump

lit his own fuse, turned red, and reiterated his desire

to obliterate a whole country.

 

Being rational, and not rationed, the ralliers

lit several fuses, turned to face the blighter, and reiterated

a shared desire to obliterate the whole of

the irrational.

 

And they did so –

literally.

Freelance writer and descendant of the cave dweller and outlaw, Humphrey Kynaston. Banished from Shropshire for my eccentricity, I have made my home in Suffolk. I write poetry, short stories, travel journals, comedy gig reviews and non-fiction articles. My wish is to write my way back into the heart of my birth land. All writing commissions (and free holidays in Shropshire!) considered.
