Default Speccie: In a Jam

Well blow me down. I submitted FOUR dashed poems this time and not even an Hon Mensh. However, the winners were exceptionally good, Bazza and Bill as usual up with the field. Hope springs eternal, does it not, Sphereans? The new competition is not only a beezer, but I actually have a poem already. I wrote it four years ago when I was taking my daughter to this godforsaken place every weekday for ten weeks (a hospital placement). Actually, there are now TWO bridges so the hold-ups don't happen. But they did. They did. The poem has been into many competitions and been runner-up a couple of times. Let's see if we can have a win. Oh, and you lot, let's see if you can have wins too.

No. 2662: In a jam
You are invited to submit a poem composed in the midst of a travel hold-up (16 lines maximum). Entries should be submitted by email, where possible, to lucy@spectator.co.uk by midday on 25 August.
