No, I know this isn't a poetry blog. But I read that there's a huge fuss because the BBC are to read the whole of a poem with 'bad' language in it. So I read the poem all through and its amazing. Written by the Leeds poet Tony Harrison about his working class roots. Tragi-comic. These are very much like my roots.
