MATT WILSON – YORKSHIRE
#?!<&*#
I really wanted to write a poem
about how much I hate things in the world,
things like reality TV shows, people who don’t deserve their fame,
guys and girls who say YOLO and use it as an excuse
to behave like idiots.
I hate snobs, slobs,
people with nose jobs, boob jobs, anything jobs
because it’s ‘cool’.
I hate racists, sexists, ageists, bigots,
homophobes, heterophobes, bisexual-phobes;
if there is such a thing.
I had it all worked out,
all the words to show just how much I hate all this,
all the ways to say I ^%`/~?@#;<&*(“!){491}
everything I’ve said.
Unfortunately I can’t.
