A Level AJ Poetry!

By Joe Jennings :  26/09/2007 :  Comments (14) :
I have been studying a poet called Carol Ann Duffy for A-Level English Literature. She is a feminisct and appears to despise men. As a task today I was asked to write a poem based on a wife potentially who has issues with her husband. I chose Mrs Johnson. The poem is based on women evidently hating their partners. I thought it was comical but got into it. If you do get round to reading it, imagine it is the wife speaking. Cheers. Enjoy!

Mrs Johnson ? The Barren Spell

That gleaming bald head
Squeaky cockney voice
His abnormal obsession with that game
The sulks, strops and awful singing
His drunken midnight snacks

Land of Luxury? Ha
Six months it had been
Since that Gwladys St roared
I was to blame, supposedly
Yet I suppressed my frustration
Like a cleaning freak waking up
To a trashed house, foolishly
Do I not have bad days?
Yet his barren spell remained
I need a goal he would say
Like earning thousands of pounds
Each week wasn't enough
Having masses idolise you
Arrogance. Asshole

Yet I was his WAG
Something many would crave
It's not shopping til you drop
I'll tell you that!

On the field he was the ultimate dribbler
At home the dribbling was non-stop
Whinging galore
His baby like bald crown
Epitomised how the masses felt
Their hero, my zero
If only they knew
Of his whining, whinging ways

Its over now
My patience wore thin
The barren spell had ended
Yet the ignorance had just begun
The absolute had arrived
My fun had finally begun

Well written,Joe!you deserve an A*.
Have to say I found your poem far more entertaining than watching the poor bugger’s struggle to score in our team!

He tried it on with my missus in beckenham where i live, when he played for palace. she knocked him back( so she says ha ha).

well as the story goes, he couldn’t even score with her.

anyway on the pitch the goals will come.

Come on Andy! COYB

Andy Johnson Is great,
he scored twice against red scum,
if he keeps up the work rate,
we know the goals will come.

His Everton contract was sealed,
Moyesy brought him in to score,
but with our current midfield,
I’m surprised he hasn’t run for the door!

The service he might lack,
but we still chant his name in song,
and when Tim and Mikel come back,
we know we’ll right these wrongs.

AJ will keep his head up,
he’ll work till it all comes right,
we’ll win the UEFA cup,
and do the double over the redshite.

Nice poem, Joe. Do you know that there is a website devoted to poems about football called Footballpoets.org? You could put your poem there. Good luck with your A-Level.

there once was a boy called joe,
his girlfriend was a fucking hoe,
he thought he was gods gift to women,
but now your in the deep end and your not that good at swimming.

even though your idol is ray mears.
alan shearer, yeah you fuckin wish,
i loved him in that black + white he always was a dish.

so joe you shearers rent boy,
i cant think of anythin else to write.
apart from your poem i thought was a pile of fuckin shite!
