Cheers mate - you know that churchyard, it's the one opposite the school nets, I was going to call it 'Knapped flint and velvet' but thought it hugely pretentious - about as pretentious as including a self-portrait!

Re: Random summer pics
Here's the poem I wrote about the tower in that raft of LaHibou's piccies...
To The Spire Of St Peters, Wallingford
Spire, you always mocked me
If I staggered home or stopped here:
To lie and spot grebes in burning day,
Myriad colours undetected
In the heartless sun;
Or in twilight, your phallus shining,
A golden promise of life
Amid purple veils of eternal quiet;
Spire of strange chambers, each
A little tinier than the last,
As if your love lessens while desire grows,
As if a finger is raised to heaven
And the poet inside you whispers
“No more worship here.”
