I have a portfolio of features, reviews, poetry and short fiction published in all sorts of places - Belfast Telegraph, Tribune, Ireland's Own, Dalhousie Review, Fairlight Books, Reader's Digest, Reality, Lapwing Poetry, Ink, Sweat & Tears, Spillwords, Dear Reader, Amethyst Review, Black Bough, to name a selection. Oh, and the odd BBC radio contribution. I wrote books on retailing, on dealing with job losses and a biography of film star Stephen Boyd.
This is a series of (hopefully) funny poems from hundreds I've written over the years (inspired by the likes of Spike Milligan and Roger McGough) to provoke a smile in these odd times.
My own original Text ©2020 Joe Cushnan (But you can RT!)
EASILY LEAD
A pencil with a cold
And a stuffed up nose
Was in love and knew
What he had to do.
He approached a sheet of paper
And without much ballyhoo
Said: “You know me,
I dot my 'i's on you.”
