I think I’ve been there once.
Nice enough.
Had my hair cut on a Saturday
in the days when it was on the top of my head.
The being sent to Coventry design
Humans are amazing at putting people there.
Blanking, ignoring, doorstepping
“Give him the silent treatment,
he’ll soon see the error of his ways.
Don’t encourage him, he’s far too big for his boots.
Let him fine dine on bamboo shoots."
Coventry? It’s that way 👆
Why not Daventry or Bantry Bay?
Abergavenny or Oswestry?
Hinckley C or Kirkby?
Twitter is the medium for moaners,
Some of them moan so much it gives them a boner.
I look for collaborators, people to work with creatively
but all I come across is insecurity.
They guard their artistic practice with German Sheperds and barbed wire
Thinking that the world is going to set their work on fire
rather than the other way around.
I’ll have to continue to plough my own furrow.
Look pal get back into your burrow 🐾
Next time round the City of Culture will be the whole county of Wrexham.
Then you will see me
shifting through the gears like Ivor the Engine and Sam Tân
driving the artistic, cultural poetry tram.
