That’s how you bang on a wall
I thought,
A URL
To a familiar smell
It’s news if it’s on
AOL
Or The BBC
BBC
What’s news to me
my three sprogs
one with a cold
two in the bogs
My eight websites
and my lost phone number
- my eight websites
and my lost phone number
of poetry and prose
my made-up word
that nobody knows
WYOCHUNG -
the can and the Carlsberg
the thousandth rung
the thousandth rung
up the mountain of dung
That’s how you bang on a wall
I thought
That should make them
Pause for thought
