Tracey and the Boar

An apology to Tracey Emin for "Not Feeling Tracey's Badger"

Tracey and the Boar

I woke this morn regretting it
Saying Tracey’s Owl is s**t!
With one mean and sarky jerk
I cast aspersions on her work
The opinion that I hold of Tracey:
Brave and bold and rather racy
I’m just jealous of her balls
And that she has her stuff on walls
The girl’s been doing it for years
Painting truth through joy and tears
An artist’s path is long and rough
What right have I to knock her stuff?
The animals were pretty cute
(I swear I heard the Owl hoot)
Hands up, Tracey, I repent
For you are truly Eminent

If I were Tracey I would draw
This sorry poet as a Boar
