Plagiaristic Poetry From Alnwick
Taken From The Dirty Bottles and The White Swan
Introduction
Many pubs have books on shelves and two in Alnwick are the sources of the lines in this sonnet. The White Swan has already inspired one story that you can read here.
I am intending to complete these lines without any research. They are all book titles but we shall see how this turns out.
The music is "Wrapped Up In Books" by Belle and Sebastian

Rose Gold Princess
This villanelle came from a suggestion by my Muse about the colour Rose Gold and gave me a chance to use the word "Acquiesce" in a poem, which I believe is the first time I have used it in any writing. It is the title of a favourite Oasis song of mine which I used to play with Spoon.

One of the Crazy Things Rich People Do That's Scary To Think About
They impress us, and sometimes they scare us, but the ultra-rich are always interesting. Some of their famous activities include buying yachts too big to move through channels, buying ridiculously priced cars that could feed the homeless of New York for weeks, and their expensive tastes in sex workers.
