POETRY
You may find my poems
The South Shields Arthur Lowe
My brother's gone to battle
With the bloke who lives next door
He plans from his conservatory
He's read The Art of War
A Field Marshall in the making
He's an arsenal in his shed
Bought from B and Q and Homebase
He's that one step ahead
He's got super trooper spotlights
Which he's had passed by the planners
And twelve foot panelled fencing
His wife's a bag of spanners
He's got noisy windmill mobiles
They whirr and whine throughout the night
A Green Mountain Sugar Maple
Blocking out his neighbour's light
He cuts the lawn whilst naked
With his petrol powered mower
Has bonfires in the daytime
He's a Rambo Percy Thrower
It's a suburban moral minefield
The darkest Michael Bentine show
His tank's a people carrier
He's The South Shields Arthur Lowe
It's not like he's a moron
His head's a hothouse of ideas
He's on Operation Beehive
This may well go on for years

"His wife's a bag of spanners" - laughed out loud.
