CORRECTION

I wrote a poem in
my book of poems,
about fuck-arsed poets
who stick semi-colons
in the middle of their
tedious lines of twaddle

however
I was wrong
that's not what they do

I check out all
these modern shit poets
by reading idle snippets
of their bilge,
whilst browsing
in bookshops,
you remember them?

and
I have now observed
it ain't semi-colons
they bang around,
it's full stops. Like this

So,
I stand corrected
you stand corrected
we all stand corrected

I do wish
they'd stop doing it
though
