The Inkwell

Sound

Salford 3rd June 2018

I ask the question, simply enough

as only a whistle i hear as they swoop among the clouds

targeting their seeds or a juicy worm

as they swoop on a patch of green turf

under the cover of a passing motor car

the poor old worm hasn’t a chance

much more hope with a fish

mission accomplished ? – when you hear our hero

chirping away after an impromptu lunch
