Jeremiad

I used to think I

was my own worst enemy

and so did many

of my friends.

 

But I wanted to be sure

 

so I kept a diary

to remind me

of faces and places,

fluctuations in pulse,

blood pressure,

respiration,

frequency of swearing

and kicking the cat.

 

Turns out I was wrong.

My worst enemy

is Jeremy Kyle.

I only made 4th place!

I grabbed 3rd on the death

of Jeremy Beadle

but I'd have to do

summat really stupid

to overtake

Jeremy Clarkson.

Thanks, Steve and Isobel. So many Jeremies, so little venom. Actually, you know, I really love this poem, one of my favourites.

You missed out Paxman...

Ha - this reminds me of a verse out of one of my old performance poems where I took a good pop at Jeremy Clarkson.

Fun and light hearted. I enjoyed it.
