Our good friend Totalfeckineejit continues to navigate new territory with his Poetry Bus. This week its all about the big question. As Prince might put it; Dearly beloved / We are gathered here today

decked out with sensors, anemometers
Shining colanders with flashing lights

sifting various temperatures of threat
aflame under rosepaned spectacles

the findings a flittered book of scribble
to be reviewed once the storm has fled
and the land calmed.
