1/. Noisy library Bring back the pin-drop silence No more loud cell phones. 2/. Leaf drifts in canal No crunching you underfoot Drowning is your fate 3/. Byron’s boring son Sane, good and not dangerous To know unlike Dad. 4/. Write anarchy rules A contradiction in terms Refusal test pass 5/. Vampire dreams sunrise Turns to dust in his coffin Like the rest of us. Arthur Chappell
