I scoured the boards to see
this battle of poesy
but found only the usual posts and commentary
given without having read
poems better left for dead -
no trace of this great saga told by thee.
The doors of the old woolshed
in Coonabarabran are scrubbed
each day to kill graffiti.
Did the newbie poet, snubbed,
his cigarette of fancy stubbed,
delete all his pompous posts from the piggery?
