Hi there,

Another poem with a very different subject from the Tate. This is based on Northumbrian artist, John Martin’s painting from 1851-3. I hadn’t seen any of his work for ages. I think I saw his Sodom and Gomorrah piece years and years ago. he has a knack for big landscapes. I couldn’t come close to the breadth of the subject, so I stuffed it into a couple of haikus.

The Great Day of His Wrath
