BRAVE NEW WORLD.
Once there was a vision of a brave new world,
the Elmhursts made it real,
in that short space between the wars.
the future was revealed.
A new way to educate
and fix all the pain of the past,
making a modernist utopia,
after the first wars blast.
A state of enlightenment,
a way of being was forged
which now is a walk
for the Totnes few
on Sundays when they’re bored.
And as we ponder our mistakes
it makes us think again,
will our tomorrow ever see
a brave new world again
