Old Big Nose…
He lay as if flattened
By a tidal blast,
Whilst wading off the Cape,
With scooped pollack in his huge calloused hands,
Perhaps.
His nose, as if aligned
With the incongruous monumental chimney
Towering atop the Cape,
Provided a triangle with a huge hypotenuse,
Perhaps.
He remained silhouetted
Against the blues of sea and sky,
Buffeted at the Cape.
A shaded, craggy, huge Charles de Gaulle
Perhaps…

An amazing rock outcrop off Cape Cornwall, near St Just in Penwith reminded me of ex-French
President, Charles de Gaulle…
