Being a famous poem
in a special bound edition
must be a bit
like being in
BIG BROTHER.
ODE TO A NIGHTINGALE
is out in the garden
sulking.
THE WASTE LAND
has been called to
the Diary Room.
SHALL I COMPARE THEE TO A SUMMER’S DAY
is curled up in the darkened bedroom
with Calamine Lotion
& sunstroke.
Up for eviction
this week is...
OH I WISH I’D LOOKED AFTER MY TEETH!
&
THE PROLOGUE TO
THE CANTERBURY TALES.
ON HIS MISTRESS GOING TO BED
&
WILD NIGHT! WILD NIGHT!
are having it off
between the sheets.
“And the first poem
to leave
the BIG BROTHER house
is..! ”
