- Suzi Feay

Ha Ha Ha A jeer on the back of his jacket In red sticky tape. Is that what Attracted them? He must have been a fan. They stopped their van Promised they’d see him home But swept him over the moors To Burnley. More beers, then it goes vague The clown punks slurring off, one by one Strange possibilit­ies, shunned And in the morning, breakfast brought By Duncan Disorderly’s mum.
