Keeping Up With The Joneses

I thought I'd try and write a poem incorporating some of my 'friends' creative output, in an attempt to show the fact we're all part of an artistic/creative community.

(It's in blank-verse, which means it doesn't have to rhyme (is that what Blank-Verse means?) - ah bollocks, but it has to have the same meter ;) don't check :P) The titles ironic I am not a poet blah blah blah...









O.P.S. (Other People's Stuff) 


 Well I'll start with my boyfriend and his documentaries of folk,
Then there is Matthew Reynolds who tends to fade out, 
Offensive & Charming are two words to describe, Sophie & Henry, 
Scott Payne is a creative hurricaine and rather brilliant at it, 
And I am rather partial to Mark Hewitt, a law unto his Poodle,
As well as Andrea Miller with whom I am suitably delighted,
Who could ever forget the hybrid of man twixt Mole (Arron?!),
Then there is the unforgettable bon vivant of Patty Dohle,


Um, well I may of forgotten a load of people, but it rather serves to highlight other people's creative output all of which I do love and listen/watch/enjoy on the periphery of my vision and hopefully they'll exist in the corners of other peoples minds for many moons to come.
