The Official Site of Author Joseph Heywood-Non Fiction

[Portage, September 2, 2009]

Talk about eccentric Brits, polymaths
Of shit, The Lawrences, TE, DH,
Unrelated by shared genes or class,
With wanderlust of epic proportions
Odd ducks, stale dogs, men of another ken
Who wrote prodigiously, soldier
And pacifist in War to End all War
Both men of intellect and quirks, neither
The sort of brainy lout one might select
To come along one day to chase brook trout.
