Bigsby Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Wrote a poem today and thought I would share it with you all.It's inspired by real life events and Pam Ayres' early work.Hipster at the tipThis afternoonI saw a hipster at the tipHow out of place he lookedWith his horn-rimmed glassesAnd his neo-quiffAnd his drainpipes with turn-upsAs he threw away a toilet seatAnd an Aiwa midi systemHow out of placeDoes anyone know if Radio 4 accept unsolicited submissions?

Hard to believe that two different people could have the same haircut/dress sense/glasses.it's funny watching you try to be relevant.As a matter of fact, I was just passing by, thought "shit thread", I have nothing to do with quiffs or throwing away toilet seats.

Bigsby Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Was pretty ace-ic until the last stanza which didn't rhyme.Or perhaps that was an artistic decision, paying homage to the 'speed's lyrics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I remember coming across it once before and enjoying it.

I was pleased with the results even if it offended the wider hipster community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
