Kicking Wooden Planks Out Of Fences Down The Melyn

Contributor: Paul Tristram

You will not fuck with me
The roughest place in Neath is mine.
When the daytime people have absconded
I shadow the moonshine.
Roaming by the terraced houses
and along the garden walls.
Through graffiti subways,
listening to rebellion’s call.
Sharp as a knife and eager
tuned into the tension.
The humming and the rhythm
now daylight’s on suspension.
Up to my wickedness
booting through your fence.
I dare you to come out
adolescence is my defence.
