*This started dec 2009/ a lifetime ago/ shortly after the titanic sank
And when I first read it I liked it/ hated it/ didn’t get it
But after all this time/ mental torture/ self-indulgence
I can’t help but think/ worry/ be extremely concerned
That you may be slightly shut off/ un-hinged/ locked in a secure unit
How long will this poem haunt me/ entertain me/ **** me off
Will it still be here at christmas 2010/ christmas 2011/ the second coming
And how many times do you tweet this poem/ take your medication/ look at it adoringly
To keep it where it belongs/ as the thorn in my side/ on a poetry list for ever
Did you know that you have no comments/ 2 comments/ 101 comments
And you have replied to all of them/ 1 of them/ none of them
Which could be viewed as bashful/ egotistical/ down right ******* rude
For the sake of me/ the human race/ your psychiatrist
Make it stop please/ pretty please/ pretty ******* please with cherries on
(delete as appropriate, preferably the poem!)*
