This poem, text only, is included in my latest Book/eBook ‘Clive’s Uni-Verse – A Cornishman’s take on life’.  ISBN13: 9781800743342 published by Olympia Publishers in Jan 2022.

The zebra: An optical illusion That tricks your sight, Not colour, not HD ready, But just in black and white. An African sales success, Of great pride it’s the source, Cleverly marketed as … A bar-coded horse.

What a wonderful write. The humour and visuals are so vivid. So cleverly conceived. A favourite, and a joy to read. Pete.
