Rubble Double At Soar Mill Cove…
Almost greyscale,
As lowering, chilling sun
Whitened foam on incongruous blue tide
Forced between outcrops:
Black piles of rock
Silhouetted against October’s insipid sky,
Diverting breaking rushes aside…
Yet there was a caricature,
The universal cartoon,
Chin lifted, nose prominent,
To form an impossible lampoon:
The sculpture in stone was the natural double
Of Fred Flintstone’s neighbour, Barney Rubble…
