The Pre-Budget Report yesterday, from London, reminded me of this...

Poem 82 of 230: ON ACTS 4:32-35

Believers were all one in heart and mind -
    They shared their excesses, giving in kind.
No-one claimed any possessions one's own -
    Yes, it was socialism on the throne.

So not long were there desperate folk -
    Fair distribution was the tongue they spoke.
And wealthy owners would sell part their deed -
    Funds, via apostles, to those in need.

Yet today, all round our troubled earth,
    Some Christians, safe at their own snug hearth,
Vote for their electorate's Right-Wing party -
    That's hypocritical, it seems to me.

I reckon those fishing boats would have been returning to the fish quay at North Shields, WAV - though you used to get the odd coble in Prior's Haven. I was born in North Shields, Preston Hospital, long demolished, and raised between Shiremoor & Blyth. Never a big fan of South Shields myself, a lot of my childhood friends hailed from the Yemeni community - established in the 1890s. Nice walks down to Soutar lighthouse & still-picturesque Whitburn - and Marsden Rock & Grotto is always worth a visit...

Hope you're still getting out & about anyway.

Yes, S., D.A. is one of those prepared to speak out on that touchy, but very important, issue. I used to watch "On the Buses" as a kid, in Sydney; now, close to your place of upbringing:

This is on my myspace player (link below) if anyone would like to hear me recite it...

Poem 187 of 230: A SOUTH SHIELDS WALKABOUT - AUTUMN 2001

Out of the museum-and-gallery
    (Wiser on Cookson and the local way),
Down Ocean Road with, to the right of me,
    Its eateries and, left, neat places to stay;
Before, on either side, Marine Parks -
    The southern-one a most beautiful place,
Teeming with moorhens, swans, grebes and mallards,
    In a small lake at a scenic-hill's base.

Then (holding chips from the parade's cafe
    And, thus, a flock of gulls squawking above)
Onto the South Pier I made my way:
    Seeing seaweed over rocks - like a glove -
And high-and-dry sands held from transgression
    By growth of grass and the weaving of wood,
Plus, in the dim light of a sleepy sun,
    Fishing boats returning to Tynemouth's hood.

I see D. Attenborough's doing a Horizon on BBC2 tonight entitled How Many People Can Live on Planet Earth? - right up your street I would imagine, WAV! I think I'll go with Anthony Graham-Dixon's Art of Russia on BBC4 - we have the option of recording, but I've noticed recorded documentaries never get watched. Sit-coms are a different matter of course & if you really want some choice English Classic TV, go with Rising Damp on ITV (Freeview #10) at 7.25, one of my all time favourites. For another slant on the England of the 1970s try On the Buses at 6.50, but only by way of contrast and comparison...

A NORTHUMBRIAN MIDDLE-SCHOOL EPIPHANY (To be Sung to a Gelinaeu Psalm-Tone)

When I was nine in 1970,
I played Melchior in the school nativity;
I banged a big frame-drum from Bethlehem,
brought back from a Holy Land holiday by Miss Morrison,
who showed me some choice cyclic Arabic rhythms,
that have been with me ever since.

Miss Morrison played upon a shawm,
because she played the English Horn;
though that is only what the Yanks, in their funny way,
call the instrument we Brits know as the Cor Anglais.

Good try, Spaw, I once spent a whole thread giving a line-by-line critique of WAV's shite verse. To no avail. He will keep reproducing this crap - this unpoetic, dumpy, ungrammatical crap and dubious philosophy until the cows come home. He will never answer a reasoned criticism directly. He will never give a cogent, reasoned response to any serious question. He merely repeats the stuff he drew a line under many years ago.

And you know what? If y'all criticise him, other dear sweet 'Catters will accuse you of being horrid to David, of ganging up on him, of ignoring the good parts of his poesy.

Let me tell you that if the exam was in Language Arts, your fuckin' ass flunked. The thing is senseless to boot. What the hell are you talking about?

The ball, off thee, whacks their net;

Not "Draconian measures," S., but one fork, of course, is EDUCATION: e.g., travelling through India in the late 80s I noticed sign-posts saying "Have one or two, And that will do"; or, in the early 80s, at high school, we heard about "Getting off before Central" - Central Station in Sydney, i.e. And lets hope this issue is not "taboo" (above) in the climate summit which has just started in wonderful Copenhagen.

Poem 229 of 230: JOYS OF LIFE

Leightons, and other great art;
    Plumes of fireworks at night;
The vivid reds of sunrise -
    Repeated at day's last light.

The beats through us of a drum;
    Winter's sun felt through closed glass;
Handing in the last exam;
    Awakenings – alarmless!

The ball, off thee, whacks their net;
    When, to palms, leather has stuck;
Orange juice during half-time;
    A warm bath to wash the muck.

Viewing set-over cricket;
    A golf ball, for once, well struck;
Viewing velodrome cycling;
    From net-chord, levelling luck!

Sticks, chants, didgeridoo,
    Haunting harps, and all bagpipes;
Clog, flamenco, tamure,
    Hula, and other dance types.

Out, by a cast, being told;
    In - taking tea and T.V.;
Highland views that command rest;
    The buildings of Italy.

Thrifty plant-propagation;
    By a wave one's body hit;
Upstream of camp - with paddle;
    By a fire - strongly lit.

Forest spent-leaves under foot;
    Tasting a host-nation's fare;
Alcedo atthis at work;
    Just-bills being brought to bear.

Allegros when feeling low;
    An andante to wind down;
Spoken French and chorused song;
    The quiet when out of town.

A stroll through a kept garden,
    Before Sunday's roast dinner;
A pub game, drink and meal;
    One's team a comeback winner.

what the world needs most, I'm afraid, is birth- and immigration-control; over 50 million IS too many for the area of land called England

I wonder how many are folkies though? And by what peculiar alchemy you conclude that Folk Music is somehow Our Own Good Culture when the vast majority of said 50 Million English Citizens couldn't give a shit about it - and rightly so in my opinion. Otherwise, even round here I can quite happily wander for three hours or more without encountering a single soul. Maybe you might provide some seriously Hard Evidence why you harbour such a drearily misanthropic overview which has given rise your noxious opinions in which you hint rather alarmingly at ethnic cleansing & eugenics - other than you are at heart a dreary misanthropist, of course, which I don't believe for one minute as every time we've met you've been so genuinely jovial and radiantly positive even about my resolutely non-folky take on your beloved E. trads. So what gives, WAV?

Poem 102 of 230: CONGESTION

The waxing view;
And the taboo:

Increasingly now, for congestion,
Leaders make this sort of suggestion -

Nationalisation,
    Remuneration,
Standardisation,
    Cooperation,
Integration;

Fine...but (through dread of accusation -
    "They don't care about our children" -
And of losing the next election)
    Most politicians never mention -
Promote a lower population.

I do care for the lives of children,
And think birth-control mends congestion -

Curb the birth queue
And influx, too.

They aren't really aren't from Poland or China, but bred first right here in the Buckeye state! I mean the hogs....the Shakers didn't go in for breeding on a personal level.   Yeah......No shit....Well actually they shit a lot but they are some huge fuckers! The hogs that is, not the Shakers. Poland China hogs are the largest suppliers of pork in the US.....probably up there in that gawdforsaken place you live too.

Oh, so it's good poetry you want, is it, Spaw? Well, ALL RIGHTY THEN!!! Try this on for size:

The Battle of the Alamo - 1836

85,000 were challenged by Travis to die
By a line that he drew with his sword when the battle was nigh
And him that would fight to the death cross over
But the others had better vamoose!
And over that line came three men, a pig, and a goose!

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, and remember the Alamo!

'Twas Travis and Bowie and Crockett who dared to remain
And the pig and the goose crossed over the line unashamed
But 84,998 Texans were lacking in grit
The sight of the Mexican Army had caused them to shit

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're fleeing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, when we're far from the Alamo!

So 84,000 came pouring out over the walls
While another 600 tried to hide in the urinal stalls
Fifty men ran for the pigpen, twenty-eight jumped in the well
320 were trampled to death when they fell

And the 84,000 came pouring out over the walls
When the Mexicans saw that mob coming, they were plainly appalled
They threw down their rifles, abandoned their cannons
In panic and fled from the field
As the goose honked in joy and the pig triumphantly squealed:

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, and remember the Alamo!

88,000 men scattered like shot from a gun
The Texans and Mexicans showed the world how they could run
They ran for the rivers, they ran for the hills, they dug holes and hid in the dirt
Santa Ana lost both of his boots, his hat, and his shirt

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, and remember the Alamo!

"We've won," cried out Travis, in wonder, "and the glory's all mine!"
"Like hell!" growled Jim Bowie, "I outrank you, and you ain't worth a dime!"Then up stepped bold Davie Crockett, his rifle held firm in his hand
Said, "If there's to be one lone survivor here, I am that man!"

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, and remember the Alamo!

Jim Bowie was found with a bayonet stuck in his chest
While Travis lay dead with a bullet hole right through his breast
And poor Davie Crockett lay cold as a sprocket, the Bowie knife deep in his heart
While the goose and the pig danced a jig on the bloody ramparts!

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, and remember the Alamo!

Santa Ana was ruined, he had to go back in disgrace
He'd lost half of his army, but worse than that, he'd lost face
The pig and the goose caught a train to Ohio where they got a good job at the zoo
And the Alamo stands as the proof that this story is true!

Hey—up! Santa Ana, we're killing your soldiers below
So the rest of Texas will know, and remember the Alamo!

Yes, the Alamo stands as proof of all that I've said
It will stand there forever to honor the glorious dead
But no one remembers the brave little pig and no one remembers the goose
Where's the honor in that? Where's the justice? And what's the excuse?

Hey--up! Santa Ana, they drove off your soldiers below
And the rest of Texas should know
How they fought for the Alamo!

With its bleak and rugged mountains,

With their misty foam;
And thousands of sheep there together doth roam,
Browsing on the barren pasture most gloomy to see.
Stunted in heather, and scarcely a tree,
Which is enough to make the traveller weep,
The loneliness thereof and the bleating of the sheep.
