An island of truth in a sea of lies...

Long-time supporter and poet laureate of Fun Island Tony Rex recently composed this moving Haiku reflecting on the irresistible march of time and the fragility of the natural environment:

Conker get stronger
Seasons go by, satsuma
She wither and die

Tony's critics have said the piece has a disturbing misogynistic undertone. Maybe... but Tony is a true artist and refuses to be bound by society's politically correct platitudes. Powerful stuff.
