Mohawk Man
and other poems

He was never worth it
Everyone could smell his shit
He was never special
Just childish and Scottish

You knew he was wrong

List of poems in Mohawk Man

My debut poetry book has 50 poems in my unique and forceful style. It is contemporary poetry on a variety of topics including music, people, events, memories, and art, in a style that combines feeling and ideas expressed in a fresh voice.

The book was almost called I was angry when I wrote this...but only a few poems are angry...

It's fantastic
to watch the exploding arc
and perfect texture fan,
bursting from a quiet nape...

Mohawk Man

Expletives NOT deleted

There are strong views, sharp words and stinging honesty in every poem. (Swearing, in other words). And lots of them. Some as part of the rhyme too.

Yah, yah, trust fund, yah
Offshore, invest, footsie, yah
Feeling pinch, one but-lar
Yah, yah, coping, yah

You knew he was wrong

You will never read poems like this anywhere else - there is anger, humour, clarity and a forceful writing style that lifts of the page and lodges into your brain.
