CAROL ANN DUFFY
Poet for our Times I write the headlines for a Daily Paper.
It's just a knack one's born with all-right-Squire.
You do not have to be an educator,
just bang the words down like they're screaming Fire!
CECIL-KEAYS ROW SHOCK TELLS EYETIE WAITER.
ENGLAND FAN CALLS WHINGEING FROG A LIAR. Cheers. Thing is, you've got to grab attention
with just one phrase as punters rush on by.
I've made mistakes too numerous to mention,
so now we print the buggers inches high. TOP MP PANTIE ROMP INCREASES TENSION. RENT BOY: ROCK STAR PAID ME WELL TO LIE. I like to think that I'm a sort of poet for our times. My shout. Know what I mean? I've got a special talent and I show it in punchy haikus featuring the Queen. DIPLOMAT IN BED WITH SERBO-CROAT. EASTENDERS' BONKING SHOCK IS WELL-OBSCENE. Of course, these days, there's not the sense of panic you got a few years back. What with the box et cet. I wish I'd been around when the Titanic sank. To headline that, mate, would've been the tops.

Introduction
This guide gives detailed readings of poems by Carol Ann Duffy, with ideas for study. On this page I use red type for emphasis. Brown type is used where italics would appear in print (in this screen font, italic looks like this , and is unkind on most readers). Headings have their own hierarchical logic, too:

About the poet
She has worked as a freelance writer in London, after which she moved to live in Manchester, where she currently (2002) teaches creative writing at the Metropolitan University. Her first collection of poetry was Standing Female Nude (1985), followed by Selling Manhattan The Other Country Mean Time (1999) and The Feminine Gospels , which reflects her interest in betting. Of her own writing she has said: She has a daughter, Ella (born in 1995) and lives in Manchester. Carol Ann Duffy was awarded an OBE in 1995, and a CBE in 2002. Back to top

Analyse the effectiveness of the techniques employed in the following poem:
ORIGINALLY
We came from our own country in a red room
which fell through the fields, our mother singing
our father's name to the turn of the wheels.
My brothers cried, one of them bawling Home
Home
, as the miles rushed back to the city,
the street, the house, the vacant rooms
where we didn't live any more. I stared
at the eyes of a blind toy, holding its paw. All childhood is an emigration. Some are slow,
leaving you standing, resigned, up an avenue
where no one you know stays. Others are sudden.
Your accent wrong. Corners, which seem familiar, leading to unimagined, pebble-dashed estates, big boys eating worms and shouting words you don't understand. My parents' anxiety stirred like a loose tooth in my head. I want our own country , I said.
