Craig, how skilfully your poem incorporates the obscure "three-pipe problem", and the biblical phrase "land of milk and honey" into a verse whose meaning is so relevant to the issues facing the World today. It is only a very accomplished writer who could do this so successfully. I look forward to reading your future poems which include obscure and archaic words.

Thanks very much for the very kind words, Kerry. As a boy, I was a big Sherlock Holmes fan, and consumed every collection as soon as I could get my hands on it. So I was happy to see this word spring up today. Cheers, Craig
