Four months on – we’re surprised it took the Tories so long, but then again perhaps not – they latch on to a good term and twist it to suit their own cynical ends.

Many Call but Few are Chosen – Confessions of a Pebble Rescuer
c. Michael St.Mark 2015

_______________________________________________________

Prose-poem’  integral to the work

Saved from a fate worse than sand,
from millennia of twice-daily tide relentless and

Reducing with friction merciless til’
nought remains save innumerable anonymous particles that fill
a vast dark seabed asleep, forever still.

A hearty wee pebble in a trillion
rescued by a Dadaist, an imagination in a million
sitting high & dry on marble mantlepiece to never more
suffer indignity of age, of endless tidal bore.

Preserved, protected, frozen
in time for all eternity, to far and away outlive
its saviour’s all too mortal identity.

M. St.M
Hertfordshire, 2015
