intro
In his poetry series 'Evidently Spencertown', Spencer Robertshaw's latest poem 'I Want to Be Your Rock 'n' Roll' is a love poem
I want to be your rock n roll If you’re a tent I’ll be the pole You’re my James Brown complete with soul If I’m on fire then you’re the coal You’re the petrol in my car If you need support I’ll be your bra I want to feed your parking meter You make the bitterest memory sweeter Rainy days are always sunny You’re the fun that makes it funny I don’t need sugar when I’ve got you honey You’ve always got a hanky when my nose is runny When it pours you’re the brolly Your smile stops me going off my trolley You’re the stop that halts my leak My tinnitus ceases when I hear you speak I’d run a marathon with my Athlete’s foot Just to save you getting in a rut There’s nothing that I won’t do There’s never a Y when I think of you A rainbow walk to a pot of gold Our journey slowly starts to unfold There’s nothing more that you could do And you don’t have to Because I Love You.
