A novel way of getting a poem read by a wider audience...

reads more like a rap piece than a poem but it has some merit.

More people should do that; those who are afraid to speak out. When the power of love overcomes the love of power, we'll find peace. - Jimi Hendrix

i know that pub where it happened, drank in there a few times in my youth, it's on the edge of what used to be a notorious estate (snow hill) but it has improved a lot over the last 20 years or so

I won't get out of bed for less than £1000 ... hence I haven't got out of bed in over 18 months. Seriously though, I like the idea of using a poem as inspiration and although I don't really do stories I may give it a go. I think the £25 is a nice gesture. I love this fishy poem! jude "Cacoethes scribendi" http://www.judesworld.net
