Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Under Militant Rule

              This is not my country

    of origin, but it has adopted me

and I have adapted to its ways,

             its tongue, its eating habits.

    Thirty years is a long time

to go without Yorkshire pudding;

             a kiss from a cotton-mill lass;

    a chat with a sharp-tongued tinker.

But I keep this all under my cap,

    out of fear more than out of

             respect.
