He is also a novelist, a playwright, a blogger, a YouTuber, a film reviewer, a literary critic, and a stand-up comic poet. Born Toronto, PhD McGill, taught at Canadian universities, too cold, live Greece, Irish citizen. No brains, but an intellectual snob.

I was beastly but never coarse. A high-class sort of heel.

The Natural Wish to Be Robert MacLean

With a Song in My Fart

With a song in my fart
I behold your adorable face.
Just a toot at the start
But it soon is a hymn to your grace.
When the music swells
I breathe through my hand
It tells you I'm standing near, and—

At the sound of its voice
I have opened my portal to you.
Can I help but rejoice
That a song such as mine bubbles through?
But I always knew
I would live life through
With a song in my fart foooooooooooooooor you.
