Return To Poets Corner

This poem is a reply to my comments on lady darts players in the article on Trina Gulliver click here to see the original article.

By Pat Taylor Of Great Haywood Club.

I have just read on the Internet your views on Lady players,
I think you should apologize or at least start and say your prayers,
We're not all squat, shorn headed, tattooed or gay,
As you should know if you've watched us play,
We could say that all male players are beer bellied sexist pigs,
But we are far too Lady like to make sarcastic digs,
I know we're not all divas, just like your precious Trina,
We're not as talented perhaps, but believe me we're much meaner.
I'm also a toxopholist. I don't know if you know,
I belong to Stafford Archers and pull a mean compound bow,
When my carbon fibre arrows go flying though the air,
They can hit a moving target-so
ALAN HARTLEY-BEWARE!
