Satirical poem on the Royal Wedding, cutbacks, public Bank holidays, writer’s block cured by day trip to the Scottish Highlands, written at short notice yesterday.
Monday 25th April -
1pm and nothing written -
Not a scrap of poetry.
What to write about
When inspiration won’t
Come? Trip to Kingussie -
Fine light for photography,
Pictures of Pitlochry,
Blair Atholl, Strathspey -
Not a good day for writing.
Poetry not forthcoming due
To rowdy Rangers fans and
A gaggle of wedding hens
Drunk on Bacardi.
So much for public holidays.
What about THE wedding?
Over-publicised and over-
Merchandised. Pretty Kate
Seems a nice girl; bloody
Hard to care about the
Pampered royals. Millions
Lavished on that wedding
Better spent on council
Services or the NHS. -
Political anti-royalist
Rant over. – So I DID
find something to write!
