A poem a week for 2012 - A record of a year in the life of... ...[Edinburgh after] 116 Years


116 Years

Edinburgh
No race, religion or colour
Just grass and blood
Green and Mauve
Ventricular Hay

Insolvent Death
Turned its back on Hampden
The cheats and the bigots
Will have to wait for
Another day

Edinburgh
Your sweet smog
Envelops my heart
In a beat
In May

Hearts surprise Celtic in Scottish Cup semi-final to book all-Edinburgh final

  1. A soccer poem? Who wrote? I can be interested in it for my May Festival in Milano, Italy
