After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace... Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my blog for details): CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY
As gospellers have said, Beneath signalling skies, On land dusty to tread, A trough in a stable Was the strawy first-bed Of a divine baby - The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope - There then and here now; The yuletide of goodwill - There then and here now.
In respect of this chance, Beneath bright or dark skies, Faith's the star that we glance Attending Christ's churches And trying to enhance, With singing and ritual, Our God-loving stance.

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Copio aquí abaixo a carta que enviei (eu, Jose de Bisön, a título persoal como cidadán de riveira... casi casi como "home de a pé") ó noso querido amigo Luciano, e que seguirei reenviando ata que me contesten, ou ata que me canse eu, que total para o caso que lle han facer... Mais ou menos, quen non esté enterado, podese facer unha idea do sucedido lendoa. Agradezo comentarios e suxerencias!
Escoitamos, sorprendidos, que o concelleiro D. Luciano Vazquez vetou a participación dun grupo de música local (composto por músicos de recoñecida traxectoria musical a nivel galego) no concerto que o grupo Ruxe-Ruxe ofrecerá o vindeiro sábado das festas de Riveira. Esta participación no seu espectáculo fora consensuada cos propios membros de Ruxe-Ruxe, que se mostraron totalmente de acordo coa idea de compartir o tempo dispoñible con outra banda de procedencia local, e mesmo encantados de que así fora.
Non entraremos a valorar agora o apropiado das verbas coas que o concelleiro despachou o asunto e que foron, textualmente: "No me toques los cojones [...] de grupos locales, nada". Non se poden valorar, xa que resultan por un lado incomprensibles, por outro lado totalmente indignas de quen pretende ser representante e promotor da cultura do noso concello.
Esta banda local estaba disposta a actuar sen pedir ningunha remuneración económica a cambio, prescindindo do seu caché habitual para colaborar no éxito dunhas festas que, un ano máis, recordannos esa famosa máxima do despotismo ilustrado do século XVIII: "todo para o pobo, pero sin o pobo".
Solicito, amablemente, unhas poucas lineas cando menos que expliquen e xustifiquen esta decisión, que á luz dos datos dos que se pode dispoñer agora asemella ser arbitraria e dificil de entender. Máis nada.
Atentamente, e agardando a súa resposta, despidese
