Liverpool Performance Poet - G. Broadleaves
Me Da
I'm a professional bore from Liverpool 4
Me Da died in the bleedin' war
Me Ma was left dead poor
She scrubbed the step daily to say she was a lady
Me and me brother sang to recover
We entertained dreams of stardom
Fleeing from our troubles on the wings of a mythical bird
Humming a tune the Fab Four had heard
The dream remained just what it was
Yet the rent was still reality
Ta ra, I'll tell you no more
'cept.... I'm the professional bore
From Liverpool 4
You know you'll be back for more...

At last! An exciting new voice on Merseyside poetry scene. Great stuff.
I found this very derivative of the work of that other Mersey wordsmith, and Poet Laureate in waiting, Samantha G Mullings.
