I personally find center alignments to be aesthetically ugly, but that's just me, and irrelevant, I guess, to the words themselves. This is a very funny and well-crafted poem, like a potty-mouthed Pam Ayres. "I won't hear The Archers/on Radio Three" were my favourite lines, because they were powerfully witty while also providing rhyming words which flowed effortlessly. A great poem; crisp, true and showing hard work
"We believe that we invent symbols. The truth is that they invent us; we are their creatures, shaped by their hard, defining edges." - Gene Wolfe
