Sean Meaney
January 2014
Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number-
Shake your chains to earth like
dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you
Ye are many-they are few.
--Doodlebug Anklebiter, Poet Laureate of the Glorious People's Revolution

The unsatisfied women of Crewe
Prefer vegetables to me and you
They start off on green beans
When just out of their teens;
By forty, only pumpkins will do.
