Fame! Poem by Martin O'Neill

Fame!



Saw my name above Pablo Neruda
Wow! could the world ever be cooler?
An' below that was Charlie Bukowski
I mean, how is that not fucking wowski?
E.A. Poe is the next one below him
And then Emily Dickinson
Followed by Shakespeare and Blake
Did you hear my jaw break?

I think Quick Links has had
A solar flare moment
If I am to be truly honest.
Either that or it's time for
An eye test.
Because I am only
A bloke, really.
