Spoken:
Murky flash floods hit Yellowcake,
Pitcairn's underground labyrinth,
Just last yesterday as greyish water from broken pipes
Created chest-deep floods in Pitcairn's underground labyrinth ex-city of Old Yellowcake.
No repairs to the system could be made,
As no one could remember how the ancient tunnels had been built.
The shopkeepers who were trying to navigate the maze of streets,
Which had quickly filled with chest-high sludge, quickly gave up.
Goats paddled pathetically down murky canals that yesterday were crowded market streets.
The water continues to rise...
