    Roger McGough’s poems are‚ with no doubt‚ light and humorous. However‚ this style of poetry does not hinder McGough’s attempt to deliver his message‚ but allows his approach to be more friendly and personal‚ and thus more successful and effective. These poems‚ ’Why Patriots Are a Bit Nuts in the Head’‚ ’My Busconductor’‚ and ’Streemin’‚ successfully deliver the theme. The poem ’Why Patriots Are a Bit Nuts in the Head’ satirises people who are patriotic by emphasising that "lives are good for you"

He was a simple cowpoke who entertained people with his rope tricks and sly political observations. He also wrote a widely-read newspaper column and appeared on the raido every week. I suppose he is a lot like Bill Cosby is today: beloved for his down-to-earth style of humor. But that "aww‚ shucks" attitude hid a brilliant mind. Furthermore‚ Will
