LETTER: A poem from a Black Country mon
A reader shares his Black Country poem.
Published
Om an old fashioned English man
Black country born and bred.
Now we’ve left the EU
I’ll sleep better in my bed.
I can grow me wonky veges
Un funny shaped spuds
With pig’s feet soaked in vinegar
Like we always could.
When it comes to money
Let’s dump the things we have.
Bring back the £-S-d
I remember as a lad.
The moral of this poem,
Where does this old ‘en start?
I’ve gone and lost me livelihood
Me flippin’ is an cart
Michael Law, Perton
