FROM LIVERPOOL TO YORKSHIRE

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

I don’t like pent up feelings
They make me feel awful
As if I still lived in Liverpool
Yet, I’ve never been a fan of Liverpool City
Anyway, Liverpool is better than Newcastle
The worst is Yorkshire for its pudding.

Thank God coal pits are no longer banana peelings
They’re modern day Picassos for the artful
Or journeymen who fear falling in the pool City
Even so, for those of us who live in Bristol
Southampton smacks of a bit of pudding.
