Abstract

A diatribe against the current changes and construction going in the Auld West Kirk in Aberdeen. Several officials are satirically lampooned, as are the physical changes being made to the kirk. In addition, several recent publications/chapbooks also against the changes to the kirk are alluded to in this poem by mentioning words from their titles and/or their authors. This chapbook is part of a collection of chapbooks produced in Aberdeen which have been bound together in this volume.
