State/Banquet Carol Ann Duffy A new poem by the former poet laureate to mark Trump's state visit How it glitters and shines, The Grand Service, among the rocks and the rubble, laid out on a breezeblock horseshoe table, six crystal glasses per setting. It took eight servants three weeks to polish - silver coated in a thin layer of gold - even the concrete dust in the air seems glamourised and the ruins are decked in the uplifting flags of democracy. To start, fillet of Dover sole filled with salmon mousse, served on a bed of leeks with white wine sauce. Poached Sandringham venison with truffles to follow, then Key Lime Pie, and among the wines, Chateau Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, 1990. Yum-yum. Let the trumpets sound on the bombsite as the great and the good pick their way through, and a famished child peers through a bullet-hole in a wall.

View of York Minster from a garden.
I never tire of my favourite view. York it rarely quiet and from here I can hear the organist practicing, whilst bees, birds and other insects are active all around me.
Thatβs why it was so bad - it never occurred to me that it was AI. (Note to self: think harder next time)
Hot day for a wedding in Museum Gardens today.
