Lists

there's something intrinsically poetic about lists…

1.
bread (wholemeal) 
twelve eggs
solar panels
occasional frogs
corporate lawyers
steam


2.
onions (red) 
tomatoes (finely chopped) 
garlic (four cloves) 
fireman's ladder (aluminium) 
disparity (secretly hidden) 
mildness (abundant) 
gluttony (almost definite) 
mozzarella (abridged) 


3.
clean sink
dirty sink
point un-necessarily 
wear wetsuit and carry surfboard in populated area
shirk responsibilities
vacuum dog
hide
reappear (nearly palindromic) 
borrow an eagle
book car in to be painted yellow
buy a bucket
start new list
