Rhyme Is Dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!

According to many students and writers of poetry Rhyme is Dead... So be it...

Rhyme is Dead!!!!!

Oh my God! Can it be true?
Rhyme is dead, it’s gone, it’s through.
It’s a useless skill, for one to possess
It’s not big it’s not clever, it doesn’t impress.
It’s stupid, pointless, childish word-play
So sterile and so totally passé
And the people who write or read rhymed verse
Should be ignored, or even worse,
As they’re unbelievably out of touch
They really should be tattooed as such
Across their foreheads and paraded through
The streets of a major city or two,
So serious poets can shout ‘Unclean.
Your verse has no place in our poetry scene’
Until finally the message gets through,
They’ll define your poetry for you.

No Excuse

My, it has been a long time since I've Blogged... And I have no excuse as to why...

It's not as if I can use the excuse that I have nothing to say, as I never have anything to say... most of my blogs are about nothing in particular...

Although there is lot's going on in my life at the moment... Many Stand-Up gigs and I have a full Children's Books Festival coming up in October...

Oh well I'll try and do better in future... Any way, I've been messing around with a digital camera and this is what I have come up with...

Hope it is enjoyed...
