revolting rhymes

I guess you think you know this story.
You don’t. The real one’s much more gory.
The phoney one, the one you know,
Was cooked up years and years ago,
And made to sound all soft and sappy
Just to keep the children happy.
— ‘Cinderella’ from Revolting Rhymes

About the Poetry at SMSA group

The Poetry at SMSA group is one of SMSA’s regular Members’ Activities & Events that has been running for over 10 years.

Each month, the group meets in the Norman Selfe Room to discuss poetry relating to a particular theme. They have one rule: you cannot read your own poems.

Several times a year, members of the Poetry at SMSA group give public readings of selected poetry which have proven very popular.
