OUTRAGEOUS

poem by: Reeves
Written on Jun 23, 2016

Not all poetry should be about depression,
love, wind and tea-cups - I prefer to be
the Donald Trump of the poetry world:
seemingly illiterate, obscenely dissolute,
uninformed, sociopathical and falsely magical;
someone said that, 'We have a duty to impart knowledge' - I did not entirely agree,
not all of us are suitably qualified and those
who are not may pass on their own mistakes;
a teacher misspelt the word 'bollocks,'
and now half the town is writing the word 
bollucks incorrectly; those who can do and
those who can not, join the radio - like certain presenters, it rings, 
who seem to have knowledge of all things.
