\nI’d like to use my name without a change
\nBut Jeff Green’s may be commoner than muck,
\nI needed something just a little strange
\nThat didn’t say at once “This guy’s a schmuck!”<\/p>\n
Before I learned to walk, or even crawl,
\nI’d found the sport that suits me to a T.
\nThe satisfying thunk of bat on ball,
\nMeans more than almost anything to me.<\/p>\n
So cricketjeff will find me everywhere,
\nAllPoetry, the Beeb, and goodness knows.
\nA monicker I never have to share,
\nWell no-one else would want it I suppose.<\/p>\n
I don’t know what it means to have a name
\nThat’s less than half a person, more a game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
