This poem was written in response to a great question from a 10 year old student.
He asked me 'Why would I even want to be a poet?'
I thought I'd try to give an honest (and slightly silly) answer about how odd the job can be.
Many thanks to Paper Rhino for their incredible illustrations/animations & to Jay Gearing at Red7Productions for filming this!
