Simon Stevens Poems
I am not getting you a necklace today.
Instead I'll give you a rope.
To hang yourself with
...
The pack of crisps I once regarded
Lie empty and discarded.
An empty plate inhabited by crust
Pizza consumed with lust.
...
I’m moving out, I’m going,
I’m developing my career,
I’m facing down my fear;
I leaving Manchester and you
...
I’m not getting you a necklace this Valentine’s.
Instead I’ll buy you a rope.
I’ll knot it in a noose.
...
Roses, red petals like satin kisses,
thorns like the bitterness of a broken heart,
growing with the aid of the sun,
without which nought would grow.
...
The Best Poem Of Simon Stevens
A Rope
I am not getting you a necklace today.
Instead I'll give you a rope.
To hang yourself with
An unescapable bond
Binding hearts together.
I am not giving you perfume today.
Here is a bottle of cyanide
To keep at your bedside.
Perfumed and strong
It won't take long.
I'm not giving you champagne today.
Cheap whisky and paracetamol
Will numb the pain
and achieve our aim.
I'm not giving you 'free love' today.
Everything comes with a Price!
