the shredded beef was a little sticky
the spring-roll as big as two fists wrapped in plaster
the tyskie sweet, a little strong
lace-curtain shiver to the slight breeze
unregarded, a thankyou note from an institution serves to remind
the ides are just around the corner
plaguing the offie and the snug
bending brushes over the lip of pond-green jam-jars
making extravagant pens bustle and burst
in the convenience store and the rotten-tooth graveyard
yard-sticks are for measuring
heinz ketchup is for chips
plasticine people must rampage through the cupboard and onto the broad strokes
the clock's last stand
it's as if an army of two would play knock-down semantics
in the field of the cloth of gold
the silver nightmares of the limitless realms of fancy
a nibs last stand
in the integrated catalogues of the night
fingers sticky with msg-laden gomph
weary with the weight of the world's biggest spring-roll
lays down to rest by the sound of the rippling rill
