Offsite Post: ‘The Poisoned Anthill’

 

Walking down a road lined with elm and oak,

A puzzling image strikes the wand’ring eye –

An anthill at the foot of a mailbox

Covered in a white coat of poison.

 

What purpose did this serve?  To protect

The postman from savage stings?  He is overdressed

In metal and in glass.   . . .

The rest is at https://www.reckonin.com/walt-garlington/the-poisoned-anthill.

Holy Ælfred the Great, King of England, South Patron, pray for us sinners at the Souð, unworthy though we are!

Anathema to the Union!
