THIRTY YEARS OF HURT astonishingly

refers to English football. Consider HARM

as substitute; SELF-HARM as last resort.

(That would be Brighton; or would have been -

not even lucky once). Show anarchist

with fizzing hand-grenade. Elicit due

opprobium. Still, the Belgrano

didn’t sink itself. BACK OF THE NET!

Indelicate to call on you so soon,

Baroness, but accounts are overdue.

Take cheap shots, where available. Point

but don’t laugh at Hartlepool, ceremoniously swathed

in ermine. Wanting direction, follow chariot

of Pluto, capering with open malice.
