why poetry?

because verses bound and wrapped
on a page of many colours
sing new voices

because one word
is better than thousands

because reading beats hearing
when the letters make
their own meaning

because small words can change big things

because the wind and the rain
and love and hate and fear
and tragedy and joy

because the world outside
is so huge and round

because inside each song
there is true greatness
and great truth

because words are the warmth of life

because brevity is our breath
in the scheme of all the gods
and we their scribes

because faith is a promise
regardless of belief

because each poem is
a life-time on its own
a summary of all we can

One of us



He walks among us,

The twelfth man on our team,

With that invisible loping gait,

That dangerous mouth.



Low to the ground,

His hands ready,

A predator, an undefined haze

In the afternoon sun.



He chases from one to the other,

Whispers encouragement,

He claps us in,

Dares us to begin… Continue

If you are still after a little laptop this is fantasic Has mobile broadband modem built in! You can get mobile broadband from Three for £5/month!

No...the laptop is from Dabs or anyone else who sells it...£425...then get a PAYG sim from Three, see this post for details but you wouldn't need the dongle.

Alternatively buy a cheaper netbook and add the £30 dongle above......(the NC10 without the broadband modem is £100 less!)

Yes good value for one with a built in modem but its still £425, cheaper option is a much cheaper netbook and that £30 dongle with the £5/month deal
