Max Seymour

Before his retirement from the rough and tumble world of live verse, Max Seymour was well known as one of Manchester's finest poets. Named after his mother's measuring jug, he is still occasionally spotted in the sleepy borough of Diddlesbury. His legendary collection of poems 'Money for Old Rupert' can still be found on the shelves of discerning booksellers.

I've got you
under my skin
if only you hadn't been
arsing around
when I was putting
that pond liner in
