Yaroo! Beast! (2016)
Back to Greyfriars I go
welcoming me with plummy words
vowelling in an English limbo
Pupils get hampers
postal orders
Nothing changes
year to year
The boys do Latin prep
a regular prayer
apart from Bunter
Liar
Thief
Fat face of anarchy
He does not change either
changes nothing but
his yellow jacket
that once smelt of paper and jam
not this kindling coat
that smells of nothing
I say you fellows
outside though
on this side of the wall
Bunters have taken over
fat owls are let loose into the world
Liars
Thieves
Fat faces of anarchy
yes the poetry all the poetry i see your poetry i believe it to be poetry i have poetic thoughts reading your poetry it’s real poetry and you can tell because it’s a picture of words and it’s symbolic of something bigger i wish i was more a poet so that it’s meaning would be deep with me i barely understand the poetry but that’s how i know the poetry is deep
