I just had an email from someone who enjoyed my poetry and wanted more. Well, let me write you something straight off the cuff. Again, this demonstrates the value of improvisation, honed after years of performance and practice, with many, many theatre companies.
Down at heel, the old man
Troubled times, heaped on his shoulder
Not a parrot, like a pirate
No
Trouble. Trouble in the form of
a Phone call. A letter. A conversation.
Sacked? Sacked? Tis a noble word
And I didn't want to be in his play
Anyway
They can keep it, they can have it
They would rather have Timmy Mallett.
Watch out Pam Ayres! There's a new kid on the block! McPhereson Prose!
