Slag Heap Critique
I am walking on the slag heap nature reserve
What was the Wigan Alps
Now the Three Sisters named after the bottomless shafts they could not fill
And the birds have it as their own
Watery idyll
And on a hillside of driven-in trees and new sown grasses
to mask million years old debris
I meet Owd Frank and he sez
Improperly Vaccinated
When finding that you are
unfairly hated
The solution I found
is to get yourself
Improperly vaccinated
New York
From someone who’s never been
New York has a king
He’s tough too
At least he was
Looks like Christopher Walken
But it’s not him
Last time I saw Walken he was doing community service with Stephen Merchant in Reading
Not the gaol
which would be Wilde
New Boiler (Do More)
Nothing chills the ego
Shows how dreary things can get
Than two hours of a Tuesday
Spent in the laundrette
In there the ambitious flounder
In fact ambition flees
finds a metaphorical shot gun
Puts it between its knees
