Frisian Lands

I brought back from my holiday this picture of the Frisian landscape  ( I’ve never seen so much sky! ) and a freshly-penned poem. Read it in escarp, “a text-message-based review of super-brief literature.”

I wrote this poem during the 2010 World Cup, when everyone was talking about vuvuzelas. It appeared in escarp: ” a text-message-based review of super-brief literature,” 17 June 2010.

Big, tough fella

loud, racy lass

timid Cinderella

blow your vuvuzela

if you must.
