This is the best poem here, not least because it was obviously written by someone who is fatter than me and we fat poets have got to stick together.as well as eating and drinking together. Oh, Michael, I wrote a poem in praise of Toad-in-the-Hole (what? You've never eaten it?) and pulled off a rare win at The Oldie.
You are right, Michael, to praise the ENERGY. I like my poems energetic. Chesterton and Ben Jonson, both truly fat men, spring to mind.
