After months in the field, the broken yolks had gilded and glazed the presenter's boots; the sponsor's lover wore a precious skull for a brooch, out-glinting the best boy's tooth. Very fine poem. tony

Rank bad form. But the creature itself shone, perched on the clapper-board, the golden one....excellent sonnet on aquatic animal; I think it's an allegorical poem; poet very acutely delineated the human cruel character through this aquatic animal; enjoyable writings... Pleasure to read this poem is...

Beautiful poem, well-executed, expressive. I like this very much.

I assume it is a sort of fish. But I’m still clueless, “quid plura”...

resonant with pride of a hunter documentarian and the objectification of the animal they enslave to their 'watch'

All the technology and 'Rank bad form.' to produce a video of a rare species. The emphasis on the commercialism instead of the feeling for nature.

'Through a thermal lens we spotted a shoal, picked up the trail of nuggety faeces' - ha ha ha, well done, poet!
