London Marathon 22 Poem by Sheena Blackhall

Flagellation or hair shirts
Marathons are all the rage
London Marathon ‘22
Release the fruitcakes from the cage

Running as an ironing board
Running as a giant snicker
Running as a giant duck
Running as a pea, Buzz Lightyear

Running as a teddy bear
Running as a green tutu
Running as a hairy ape
Running as a giant poo

Running as a red post box
Running as a xmas tree
Running as an ice cream cone
Running as a strawberry

Running as an avocado
Running as a giant minion
Running as a dog, a crown
Martyr, hero, athlete, moron?
