McPoems - Billeh Nickerson Think you don’t like poetry? Scarred by Wordsworth’s daffodils in school?

Scared you’ll be expected to parse or diagram or do something equally mind-boggling with the words that make up a poem?

Then you should definitely check out these poems.

They’re funny, sweet, and sad.

They’re observant, flippant and poignant.

Ever worked in fast-food? Ever eaten fast-food? Ever heard of fast-food?

If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, you should give this one a try.

I’m positive that I’d’ve missed it but I’m so glad that I didn’t: sign me up for everything else he’s written.

I read this one because I was encouraged by an interview on CBC's The Next Chapter; if you want to know about some of the other titles I've enjoyed that they've recommended, I bookchat about some others here.
