11KBW’s Sean Jones QC and direct access barrister Alistair Mitchell in #lawyerlovepoetry head-to-head
Jones
I love you:
1. More than roses and/or any flower: and
2. Almost as much as a billable hour;

Mitchell
My love it runs as deep you see,
As your Plea-Only advocacy. #lawyerlovepoetry

Jones
My love for you shall last, subject to paragraphs 13-25 below and provided you shall not predecease me, until my death #lawyerlovepoetry

Mitchell
My pleading falls upon deaf ears,
TAKE YOUR GIMP MASK OFF MY DEAR #lawyerlovepoetry

Jones
Soft wind stirs my wig
My heart leaps within my gown
Bind me with pink tape

Mitchell
At luncheon in the Robing Room,
Stripped off and embraced our doom.
It was liberating.
It was free.
Now we face the BSB.

On the basis of number of retweets, Jones is the clear winner. But then Mitchell has far fewer Twitter followers, and his raunchy gags are less shareable, so let’s call it a draw.
