Christina I must admit to not knowing who Lindey England was until
Grasshopper mentioned it in her crits. Then I remembered the pictures on TV.
I don't get a newspaper. Someone mentioned about you not needing the title
as it made things too clear and I will have to agree as the poem worked for
me without the title. I thought Lindey was some village in England (honest)
what a dope I am. But the poem did work for me none the less as I was
thinking of domestic abuse by the female against the male. I thought I had
better make this clear to you hmmm. How my mind works sometimes. Bw Sally J
