Extracts from Bilston Words

Two poems by Peter Hill:

Blast Furnace Lament (40kb)Postscript to Reading Group (40kb)

A story from Sahin Kathawala:

For the Oread nymph among the poppies (40kb)

Here is a new piece of work by Ramesh Gaat:

Forgotten
 
Lonely as a sailor out to sea,
Bored as a buried man,
Making ideas of useless nonsense.
 
Tied down to four walls,
Imagining what is not real,
No sky, no sun and no clouds to behold.
 
Locked up like a parrot,
Forgotten like an irritating thought,
Blinded like the foggy seas.
 
Counting down the tips of your fingers,
Hoping like the heavenly prayer,
Freedom's slipping away like a rolling ball,
Locked and left out to dry like a washing line.
 
Ramesh Gaat
