Tapering
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
About this poem
Modifying structures of language that move too quickly to really ever put your finger on, and often do so while you're not even paying attention until you're stuck in a realisation that you haven't earned rights to enter rival cliques, only rights therefore being equality ones.
