And there it is
Three fat cloves pulled from the ground
Each the size of a normal bulb
With an immediate garlic blast on the air
Rubbed and tied to the washing line
A week for paper-white skins to form
For wet garlic to dry
Flavour and scents concentrated
And a smile of triumph.
WhatWhyHow???
This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.
But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.
