Reputation Poem by Douglas Scotney
Reputation
After thirty years,
first heard:
tanks in the square
deliberately made pomace of people,
mainly pupils.
It was scooped up by bulldozers,
deposited in dump trucks,
removed from the square
and disposed of by fire.
Worse heard:
the pomace was graded into heaps
and burnt on the spot.
Counter-heard: America the liar.
That's what they do to each other at home. Just watch them closely spreading influence.
A meaningful and thought provoking poem about pomace and it's meaning. Thanks for sharing.
You use the word 'pomace' in an uncommon way-like a conceit. Good.
