Here’s a poem called ‘For Your Own Safety and Protection’.

For Your Own Safety and Protection   In response to the recent flooding of the poetry trade with cheap, inferior verse, heavy tariffs have been imposed on this poem.   As a result, it is unlikely this poem will be read by anyone outside my domestic market – or as I like to call her, my cat.   Such news will come as a relief to the thousands of people who have already found my poetry to be taxing enough,   and lends further credence to those literary critics who consider my work to be of little import.   Brian Bilston
