1. “The Finger”
They called him “The Finger”
I never did find out why
2. The Submission
Dear Editor,
I enclose 17 poems
And my cheque for £8.50
(50p per poem)
Thank you for your consideration
(Intimate photos will follow shortly)
3. The Shakespeare Effect
This is not much more than a title at the moment
I am looking for a decent rhyme for “Avon”
Do you think “swan” works?
4. The Apology
Dear Editor,
I am sorry
I am really sorry
I am really very sorry
I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am
