Terry Pratchet has to get a mention on this one

Dave
********************************************

Chalk embedded in flint teaches a witch
How to make cheese
No lightly flowing feet
To sheep
Who know
Where they're sheep
Knowing
The land has fought
And will be fought
Witches taught the long stroke
Escape techniques
And long breathing
For the footnotes
To define
Aqualungs
Feet down there for dancing
Arms from concreting phrases
That dance on every wall
That age
To know the twinkling eyes
That ask
Would you buy a book
Of this man

Well

He does write a good story
And does'nt need me
But his visions are visions
And I can write on a vision
And so can you
And he's not a bad bloke

Dave
