Out today – Songs from a Tone-Deaf Minstrel

Songs from a Tone-Deaf Minstrel, poems from love songs to limericks by Jane Jago

Do you find life both amusing and frustrating? Are you an oddly-shaped peg in a regular hole? Do you march to the tune of your own band?
If any of this is familiar the poetry of a tone-deaf minstrel may be right up your crooked alley.

Ghost 
Creature of mist
Dances with night
Flirting with death
Flees from the light
Cries in the wind
Sings to the grave
When morning arrives
Dies like a knave

The poems take a somewhat skew-whiff look at life through the eyes of a person who doesn’t take herself too seriously, though not all is humorous.

So pop along and have a look 
Within the covers of the book 
And if you like the things you see 
Chuck a couple of quid at me 
And that is all I have to say 
Support a sad old bat today!

Songs from a Tone-Deaf Minstrel is out today. Just in time to pop in the Christmas stocking of someone you love. Or someone you dislike?
