Dial-a-Poet

i

Broken down?
Only a hard shoulder to cry on?
Reach not for the RAC or the Samaritans.

DIAL-A-POET.
Minds and machinery mended.
A sonnet will be pinned softly
to your bonnet.

ii

Injured at work?
Crushed by falling scaffolding
or the inbox ennui of office life?

DIAL-A-POET.
You may be entitled to
an Ode to Compensation.

iii

At death’s door?
Failing fast in your hospital bed?
No friends or family to comfort you?

DIAL-A-POET.
The poet will arrive at turtleneck speed
to deliver a sweet, sweet eulogy
at your funeral.

iv
