OUR PENNILESS WRITE

Contributors   About   

We aim to foster experimentation in writing. We believe traditional structures of writing can be restrictive and we encourage those who do not adhere to the tried, tested and, therefore, validated conventions of literature and art writing. We want to experience new writing without relying on our preconceptions and expectations of established genres. There are no deadlines for submissions. The only criteria is that submissions be under 3,000 words (or up to 10 images for visual essays). Submissions can be sent to ourpennilesswrite@gmail.com

    "WHAR DAE YI STAE NOO?"
    By JV

    Look this is very important
    And as I’ve said many times
    Economical with the truth?
    I’ve got driving fines?

    Ah ken, that’s whaye am askin yi
    Yir lies stick tae yi lik glue
    The patsies hiv aa bin cote
    So whar dae yi stae noo?

    Wiz it you that claimed tae get yir moat cleaned?
    And yir wee hoose fur the ducks?
    Pits yir inheritance money abroad?
    And avoids peyin aa yir tax?
    Hauf peyed an illegal immigrant as yir cleaner?
    And wiz greedy tae the max?

    I think my first house is now my third
    And my second is now my first
    Give me that to drink
    I’ve got a terrible thirst

    You’ll need to ask my secretary
    That’ll be my son, daughter or wife
    I don’t like your attitude
    Waging wars in the name of you people has been my life.
