Man in the Vauxhall Corsa – A Poem

Man in the Vauxhall Corsa
With the Jesus fish symbol
Stuck to the boot
(of your Vauxhall Corsa)
Do you really think that Jesus
Would approve of your vehicular choice?
He’d probably prefer it if you walked
Or something like that
I believe he was like an old fashioned hippy

These are the sort of things
You need to consider
If you’re going to make such public demonstrations
Of your misguided beliefs
Via the medium
Of Jesus fish symbols
Stuck to the boot
Of your Vauxhall Corsa

My Secret Crush – A Poem

When I first saw you

Next to that tiny man

I knew all at once

That I’d be your biggest fan

You’re tall with blonde hair

And beautiful, of course

I wish you’d look at me

The way you looked at that horse

You’re a gift to the world

Yes, you make us all sing

I wish you were mine

Overweight Teenager

Overweight teenager
With your ill-fitting
Yet trendy
Clothes
And your face
Plastered in make up
When will you realise that
If anything
Your ill-fitting
Yet trendy
Clothes
And your face
Plastered in make up
Make you look more overweight

A salad
And a run
Would be a more effective
“looking slim”
Technique

Bernard: A True Story\Poem

Bernard emerged in adult form

From his mother’s womb

He’d been in there for many years

Because they just didn’t have the room.

See, when Bernie’s ma had given birth

She’d gone from you to “us”

But the council didn’t have a bigger flat

So his bedroom was a uterus.

It had been a lonely life

Which had led to deep depression

But Bernard had nowhere else to sleep

Because of this bloody recession

But now – at last – he is free

Yes, Bernie can share his stories

About his bijou living space

Caused by these bloody Tories.

The Review Show – A Poem

The Review Show

On BBC2

Simultaneously intrigues

And makes me feel blue

They discuss the arts

Opinions they vent

It helps to tickle

My intellectual bent

I often drink

From their cerebral cup

But a lot of the time

I wish they’d fucking shut up
