When Fleetwood Mac met Game of Thrones

Stevie Nicks says she has written poems dedicated to characters from Game of Thrones ...


And they say poetry is over. Adorably eccentric singer Stevie Nicks says she has written "a bunch of poetry about Game of Thrones – one for each of the characters". I know what you're thinking. Isn't it time Carol Ann Duffy jogged on and let the Fleetwood Mac siren become poet laureate? Nicks hasn't yet published her verses, but given the emotional angst, philosophical profundity and lunar weird she customarily packs into a couplet, how could Nicks's George RR Martin-inspired poems not be superb? Let's let's imagine what they'll be like ...


Daenerys


Rock on – Daenerys Targaryen

You've got baby dragons

On your shoulder


And a liberal stance on

Nude scenes

Should the script

Demand it. Whoo ... whoo... whoo ...


You're just like the white-winged dove

Flying to your nest-throne, love

Through fire, ice and, you know, dolour

Though I wonder if that's your natural hair colour


Rock on – Daenerys Targaryen

You've got baby dragons

On your shoulder


And, girl, you know you know how to work

That off-the-shoulder number

I actually pioneered, yeah?

Like 50 years ago or something? Whoo... whoo... whoo ...


Girl, you weren't born

To make things easy

Especially for Iain Glen

Who plays your bondsman

Ser Jorah Mormont.


What a jerk-off name

Men. Don't get me started

Have I ever told you about Lindsey Buckingham?

Sheez


Don't even go there

Whoo... whoo... whoo ...


Jon Snow


I'm climbing the icy wall

Bound to fall

Especially coz that clown with the googly eyes from The Office

Yeah, that's him. Mackenzie Crook

Not what you'd call a look

Er. Is cutting my rope


And the girl who stole my heart?

The one with a sour face like

Mick Fleetwood and Sam Fox's love child?

You know who I'm talking about. She's not all that.


She's conflicted

Which isn't what you want to hear

When you're dangling from a sheer

Ice cliff


I need you to love me

I need you today

I don't want any more girl-on-boy fisticuffs

Because I'm sensitive and fey


It's easy to confuse

Me with news

Presenter

Jon Snow. Some have made that mistake

But I'm, like, 700 years younger

And built. I'm just saying


Cersei


Cersei rings like a bell through the night

And wouldn't you love to love her?

Cersei rings like a bell through the night

Especially if you're her brother


All your life you've always had a

Non-judgmental approach to sibling rumpy

And a snooty eyebrow thing

That makes your dwarf brother jumpy


Plus more wicked witchery than Christine McVie

Which is saying something, whoah!

And an evil son who makes you fret over

Nature versus nurture


Was incest in the middle ages forbidden?

What do I look like, a historian?


All your life you've never seen

A boy pushed from a high window

By a bro and sis

Who didn't want the secret to get out

Well, not until recently


You've got hotsy totsy lips

Majestic froideur

A smile as big as, erm, Big Sur

But those have got to be hair extensions, right?


Taken by the wind

Taken by the wind

Hair extensions

Unwise

Unwise

In these

Troubled times
