Victor/Conqueror/Might is Right [work in progress]


The roof is decorated/fringed
With pigeons - evenly spaced like gargoyles

On a Gothic cathedral.


The white pigeon
Works his way [sidles/shuffles] along the ridge pole,
Forcing/skittling his grey companions [out of his way]
Onto the lower slopes/tiles,
Until he is at the far end,

Alone.

This obviously still needs a lot of work, but I thought it might be interesting for people (if anyone reads this!) to see how I work... I did consider "Apartheid" as a title, but thought it was too unsubtle?
