Simon Armitage - my father thought it or Eagle

I love this poem. Do you guys think it is appropriate for an interview? Could the use of vocabulary make the observer question why I chose it?

Should I go for a safer option of Tennysons “eagle”?

My father thought it bloody queer?!
By any chance are these the poems you studied at GCSE?

@MrsHamlet yes. I’ve planned a micro lesson on the eagle now so I’ve made my choice

How did it go?

Bit late to say now but I think The Eagle is ideal.
