Devil’s Frying Pan…
Handle reached under rocky roof,
Opening into a loop
Where sea-food cooked
And sizzled and looked
Like boiling brimming soup…
Pan overflowed onto rocky shore,
Spilling its contents vile
Where danger lurked
And spat and irked
Like sour spewing bile…
Devil hovered over rocky incision
Lying in awesome wait
Where fools would stumble
And slip and tumble
Like helpless human bait…

February 2007...
Near Cadgwith Cove, Lizard Peninsula, Cornwall…
This collapsed cave looked rather like a frying pan
waiting below the dangerous cliffs…
