@daraghfleming: St. Augustine’s College Sydney made this video of my poem, If I Ever Have Boys, a reaponse to Lucas Jones, and it’s incredible ❤️ #poetry
Can someone enlighten me about what he means by “in response to Lucas jones” I can’t find anything about it.

It’s a fantastic poem, but I really dislike that the school is using it for their own gain. I know multiple boys who left st Augustine’s because they didn’t receive the very support you talk to in this poem. Again, it’s a very beautifully written piece.

This is fabulous and special to me I am a mother of a boy and to hear this poem that was written by a man with my hometown accent and to hear it spoken by the boys of the city I now call home.
