Well, here's a start. What could be more serious than tobacco abuse and child abuse both in the one poem? And private debt too. Perhaps Lucy will be afraid to post it lest the Speccie be closed down by the morality police. Now for a lighthearted look at racism.
I have removed this poem, which the well-read among you will have seen was about Christopher Marlowe, because Alex has received a complaint about it. I make no criticism of Alex who is just passing on something, and who has made no attempt to strong arm me. The poem is still in Lucy's in-tray, and has indeed already been accepted by Les Murray of Quadrant, but there you go.
