WHO IS THE FOOL?

I'm told I can't write Poems
I'm told they have to rhyme
But sod them, I'm writing
And, my it's exciting
Even with all the spare time

On a bad day in Summer
Pen to paper I put
With very odd phrasing
It's just so amazing
And a poetry-looking look

I'm indoors once Again
Doing nothing, not playing football
Just writing nonsense
Just using consonants
And rarely dropping in a vowel

The days are going By
I almost wish I were back at School
As I think Oscar Wilde said it,
I wrote this, but you read it,
So just who is the fool?

Here, have another. This one dedicated to Tim Westwood.

THINKS HE'S A GANGSTA
He was in the bronx in '82.
Thinks he's more of a rapper than you.
But he's moved East to LA
Stuck in a time delay

Aged forty-four
He likes hip-hop all the more
And he's laughed at every day

He has a fake gun in his pocket
To 'Da Man', he wants to sock it
And his kids all call him gay

Arguing with his wife
Nearly took his own life
When Shady went and dissed Dre

He loves to talk street
He loves the grime-beat
And tries to live the gangsta way

His life has been wasted
No success has been tasted
And he doesn't know what to say

No longer know what to do
Grandmaster Flash could sue
Probably lives next door to you

CELEBRITY
Everyone agrees that John Keepsy is the best at what he does
But is it lack of competition?
John Keepsy walks in the footsteps of his Heroes
But there's space where his toes should be

A golden shower
A Mind to numb
Once John Keepsy was creative
He built that which brought new joy to thousands
But now a hack, he stays with others
Who re-hash their own pass glories
To sell his soul to the gutterpress
Is his only solace
To know the public still cares for him
To get a headline by-line
But he is already dead
