Nice. I shall revisit in due course. Right now,
'tis time to write a proposal
and call it good work.
Certainly, 'tis less stressful
than battling the Turk
on the hills of Gallipoli, now Canakkale called
(though it was never Gallipoli in the first place,
that peninsula overlooking the fields of Thrace,
but held amongst its prominences Callipolis town).
I shall revisit these lines wearing a frown,
and argue Yehoshua's body still lies underground.
