Only Three Lines for Mrs Simpson

Brilliant to see some praise for both Tapsalteerie and our pamphlet Sardines in the latest Northwords Now (Summer 2014) magazine. Mandy Haggith says that Sardines is:

"An inspired way for a new book producer to break into the Scottish poetry scene... a collection full of voices you’ll recognise, but won’t read in books from the mainstream poetry publishing houses."

She goes on to quote directly from one of the poems called "Only Three Lines for Mrs Simpson". In celebration of receiving such a nice review in one of the top Scottish literary periodicals we've decided to reproduce the poem in full here. Hope you enjoy it!
