“THE MEDIOCRE POETS” 18 Feb 02
We are The Mediocre Poets
the unpublished, the unrhymed
those who remain unblessed
with delusions of articulacy
our visions are unexceptional
like our talent -
nothing special
words are our testament
The Mediocre Poets
hide our frightening verse
locked in drawers in Edinburgh
never to be seen again by human eyes
The Mediocre Poets we are
the silent majority
lowly we are, lowly we write
and never shall rise
