In this instance I do not know the precise source of it all. A I said above, I took the photo with the thought in mind that there might be a poem in it. Part of that was the fact of the pylon being in a copse. When I began I had no thought of the end. That actually came very near the end.<br />I do thank you most emphatically for your response, though. It is so helpful to know that think you on the right lines.Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430484174826768488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-46494801066072333342010-12-21T12:26:00.972+00:002010-12-21T12:26:00.972+00:00I can't help but wonder where your mind was wh...I can't help but wonder where your mind was when you wrote this - it's such an amazing mix of down-to-earth dialogue and phantasmic imagery. I had a feeling the cancer element would come, but your choice of "oncology" makes is so much more elegant - in keeping with the feel of it.<br />I wrote a poem about hydro towers once, but it came nowhere near to the power of this.<br /><br />KatKat Mortensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877694888419628533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-16365140983267420622010-12-21T09:35:52.639+00:002010-12-21T09:35:52.639+00:00Jeanne

They said thanks to them, our electric bill would be less. No one believed them. You could hear the wires all night ZZZZZZZZZZ. We got used to it. Only sometimes, when there was a surge, blue lightning would jump across our floor. We complained and they told us, not to worry, our house was grounded but just in case, "Don't take a shower in a storm." We believed them.Richard Theodore Beckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10158791520398641622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-55746335546184298802010-12-20T21:25:37.694+00:002010-12-20T21:25:37.694+00:00Simply Wonderful!
