Ode to silent Sundays

Laydown your plastic poppies,

wreathes of sage, 

mandrake, mangrove & juniper

Lead the procession

this is our only religion,

the only excuse left 

for silence

have a wet lunch after 

in the Commonwealth club.

Paschendale

almost smacks like a sheeshy 

boulevard of cocktails

We love the empire of the dead

Rember real poppies ?   Not too worry, this is one tradition thats more popular than ever
