The Poetry of Martin Fairclough...
PRIORITIES

"Yes, dear, I'm early and pissed as a newt
There's a reason for that, dear, I've just got the boot
It's the third time this year, dear,
I'm out on my ear, dear,
Starvation is near, dear,
And I don't give a hoot.

Well, dear, it's simple - we'll sponge off your Ma...
We'll tell her we need it to buy a new car...
Now don't be so rash, dear,
She HAS got the cash, dear,
(Please pass me the hash, dear),
How stubborn you are.

Then, dear, we'll cut back - our savings are gone
And there'll be very little for us to live on
You must give up your art, dear,
Not dress quite so smart, dear,
(Take up as a tart, dear?)
For God knows how long...

What, dear? You're leaving and taking the kid?
To be brutally honest I'm glad to be rid
Of you and your brat, dear,
And that bloody cat, dear,
Get out of my flat, dear..."
And that's what I did.

How the fire started I haven't a clue
The first I heard of it I just heard it from you
I've described how he rants
What do you think's the chance
Of his life insurance
Paying what's due ?


Martin Fairclough
