TOMMY TAINANT: MAHARISHI OF JACKOLAND

Below is one of Tommy Tainant's finest poetic offerings, reproduced for your delight. For those not in the know, Mr Tainant is Wrexham's number one fan, in addition to being a spiritual guru to the great unwashed, a wordsmith of unchallenged superiority, the greatest Jacko since Twm Sbaen, and the world's foremost unelected but benevolent Great Statesman. We are truly not worthy.


You can follow the spiritual and intellectual endeavors of Mr Tainant (surely it should be Sir Tommy by now) on his wonderful blog, Tommy Tainant's World Of Wonder, here.

Oranges and Carrots are the same colour 

Oranges

are orange.

So are carrots.

Why is “orange”

Orange

And not ”carrot”?

Chesters

Going down

Again.

In truth

Its well

Deserved.

It’s a fact.

They have

Been poor

For several

Years.

But then again,

So have we.

Are they

Wrexham

In disguise?

Or are we

Chester?

Which is the

Carrot?

And which is

The orange?

And who makes

These decisions?

Decisions about

Naming colours.




And A

Or FC.

Or AFC

And so on.

Orange juice

Carrot juice

Orange cake

Carrot cake

Which is which?

Which is Chester?

Questions need answers

Like plants

Need water

But some Questions

Are harder

Than others.

A carrot

Is a carrot

An orange

Is an orange

Wrexham are Wrexham 

And Chester are shit.
