You can bank on it

[tectak]

Well said that man...although personally I would have like a bit more hatred and malice in there. (Opps did I say that..of course as a nicey Christian I would think no such thing...but with my mortal (left) hat on I daily scan the news to see if a few rabid gunmen have muchied up, from picking on kids and shoppers and got their arses into a central bank office or two).
Really sorry I do not have more time this morning to spend on this - my only quick note is, in S2 L2 I stumble over there not being on after rain.
Enjoyed the read and the presentation. Good images. Nice rant. What can I say, lovely punctuation as ever.

Hi Cider,
Yes...a few news-muse poems lets off steam! This one is, of course, banker's bonuses. Very topical but really outside my genre.
The lack of the "on" word was forced on me because I wanted to use the idea of the impotent dispossesed, chucking stones and sticks in street protests. The projectiles were not raining ON them, but upon the institutions they were not best pleased with...as in " He shall rain death upon you all!"
Be careful with the word "rabid" as serge appears to have accepted it as a virtue...in him, it is
( joke ya serge)
Best,
tectak
