Poem: Ransom

Good morning everyone!

Here's a little poem for you. All a bit eco-warrior with financial backing.

Tuesdays are going to be my creative days. I'm going to post something new each week, so if you like this and aren't subscribed yet, please do consider it. If you do, the big signup thing before the poem vanishes (I think).

Ransom

I bought 0.12 acres
Next to the development
Next to the building site
Next to the field

And it is a rebellion

I know they will ask
To purchase my land
To make me rich
To use it for progress

And I will say no

I have not even an acre still
The space remains fallow
The shopping centre unbuilt
The animals undisturbed

And I go there for walks

I am a thorn in the side
Of the developers and landlords
Of those who would improve
Of the economy and growth

And I do not care
