Outcast Poems

Poems were from 2005 to date. I do regular readings at “Sparky’s Flying Circus”, Half Moon, St Clemence, every Thursday evening, and every other Tuesday “Anything Goes at Mangos” downstairs at Mangos, Cowley Road. Both near the Plain, Oxford, both start at 9pm. If you are around call in, have a beer, listen to some poetry and music. Come and read your own or play us something if you want. It would be nice to see you. Outcast Poet

MODEL VILLAGE

There is a model village
Just off the M40 near Beconsfield.
Naomi Cambel lives there
Just up from the Little church
Opposite a 1 foot square house
Where Kate Moss lives
Twiggy lives in a tiny retirement home
At the back of the farm yard
That I nearly trod on.
Jean Shrimpton has a room next to her,
They have to keep her sedated.
Liz Hurley moved out of the
End of terrace cottage
When she got pregnant by Bing
Well, that is what the neighbours think.
Claudia Shiffer has her car
Permanently parked outside the
Village station
She must have a lot of tickets by now.
The clock tower next to Jordan's house
Has gone rusty
And the paint is flaking on Jerry Hall's lawn.

Of course, some may say
They don't really live there.
In fact there are no models
Living there at all.
But when I walk around
the model village
just off the M40,
near Beconsfield,
Looking down on the rooftops,
I like to think they do.
