Christmas Present thank you letter from Snow White

Dear Dopey and the rest

of my six, lovely little friends

this is just a tiny note

just to let you know

while i was here

and you were gone,

I just wanted to thank you

for your Christmas Present,  

but while I was here

and you were gone

I just wanted

to let you know

you had left the price tag on,

nobody had replaced

the burnt out old fuse

nor the plug which looked like

if it had been left there

much longercould have melted

the wrapping paper.

I am a little stunned

it looked likesomebody had already used it

and worse still

didn't bothered cleaning it

when they had finished

with it

or bothered drying out

the instructions. 

I cannot believe

another name is quite visible

underneath my name

and my address is nothing

like Snow White's Pleasure doTN22 3NJ. 

I am blazingthe wrapping paper

looked like it had being

half ripped open

which made me think

somebody messed

around with it

last christmas

and thought to themselves

there is no f**king way

I am keeping that

and I'll recycle it

to some other sod

the following year. 

So while this is just a note

while I was here

and you were gone,

I would like to say thank you

for your gift

of a hedge trimmer, 

and would just let know

in addition

that the used blow up reindeer doll

you also sent

has being returned

to Santa Claus

and he's coming

round to yours

to kick the Sh*t out of you later 

Love Snow White

If the art galleries shut (new poem published)

Dear all;

As some of you may know, I have been going to Write Out Loud - Stockport for a bit now and have been concerned about the possible closure to this (or the shortening of hours).

As a member of Stockport, we got together to produce a ebook to send round to a number of the local press to highlight this.

My Poem can for this be can read here
