POEM COMPOSED ON THURSDAY

This poem was composed by various members of the Writers' Workshop on Thursday,29th April 2010 as the new executive was being voted into office.It was jointly authored

The world is indeed a football pitch
Two goal posts on either end
One ball on the field
Players of all sizes chase the small ball
But no one seems to score
The goal seems inconspicuous
The referee is at the heat of the game

On one goal post we have the humanists
The Christians are defending the other post

Who is playing a fair game?
They say my thoughts are odd
They say I am only haunted by hallucinations
But, without a poet all is dead
For he is the owner of the pitch
