The Cyber Mermaid is grinning with relief that finally the mounting interest on her bank credit cards has finally come to a halt due to the default. The cheshire cat is grinning insanely at the financial madness of economies being built on foundations of debt. The order of countries that are likely to default on their debt ( on the debt clock ) is conjecture.

Lincolnshire Windfarms poem in the February issue of Lincolnshire Pride magazine
1 Feb 2012. I haven't as yet seen it for myself as there are no copies of Lincolnshire Pride magazine in my local newsagents but I have been told that my poem is in there. I am still putting my thoughts together on the issue of the rapid expansion of windfarms all over the landscape of Lincolnshire. They get a mention in many of my landscape poems as they are now a feature of the landscape whether we like it or not.
An epoch of giant clocks
expand across the
sea and land
The noses of a squadron
of spitfires, all routed
to the ground have
nowhere to go,
their egg-shaped engines
sit in feathery clouds
high up in the sky
rolls of hay below
An epoch of giant clocks
expand across the
sea and land
Swallowing nature
in their impatient spin
and rapacious span
A meadow of metal petals
are flowers in the wind
petal propellers spinned
A fleet of alien aircraft
have landed in a field of wheat
The noses of a squadron
of spitfires, all routed
to the ground have
nowhere to go,
their egg-shaped engines
sit in feathery clouds
high up in the sky
rolls of hay below
What do they lay ?
When do they sow ?
I tread lightly
as I return to track
from my windy trail
inside a windfarm gale
While a swarm
of swallows
swiftly swoop and sweep
nearby
as if reclaiming
back the sky
