WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

Ear of the year

I find it quite peculiar
How body parts are fetishised
No matter how the same we are
Our differences are amplified.
That lady's bottom
Is the best one on the planet,
While that man's trousers
Are the tightest ones in Thanet.
Maybe it is just because
My own body's not spectacular
Unless there's some reward
For having skin as white as Dracula.
But actually I think that there
Are more important things to recognise
Than inside leg and size of waist
And measurements around our thighs.
