While at a poetry group slam at the Hayloft in the Long Valley bar in Cork, Ireland (2014), the crowd was asked by the moderator to bark out five words which would be used in a poem. After thee barking, we were told that we were to write these poems, and in three minutes. The words were "bushfire", "transition" (my contribution), "muzzle", "crass" and "missing". This is what I came up with among the 50 or so people and ten willing poets. See what you can do! -M
