Tame-haired yet
Doc-Martened
an anarchic
footwear habit.
Suited yet booted
half-raging-half-tragic
your Exploited LPs
stacked-neat in the attic.

Hi K,
I have to make this post to say that I think this ex-poem of yours is GREAT !!

It really rings a bell with me. And it will with any ex-anything and with anyone who feels a minority (of one ?) in this world. Especially the poor in a rich world, the black in a white world and the ex-child, ex-young, ex-Mod, ex-Rocker or even ex-Teddy !!

This must be your greatest ever poem, and should be posted EVERYWHERE !! Even on that crap Facebook.

As to your Poll, I am going to have to answer Yes - but more a "yes if there is any point to trying to do anything in this world" or "yes if there is any point in voting in a general election". Trying to do something good in this world may well achieve little, but not trying will certainly achieve nothing !!

So do keep writing and posting K. It will help inspire me for one.
Regards

So it is!

Thanks very much Mr Wilmot.

I know I piss and moan about the lack of input here (which isn't exactly helpful!) There is nothing more I'd like than to see this here Grimsby Poetry forum take off...

I have my own site: http://www.closetpoets.co.uk which I tend to change on a semi-regular basis, and I 'll certainly put a link on there (when it's up and running) "that's me in the corner"

Anyhow keep on keeping on and all that.

cheers
Kris
