Zoo Drop

Zoo Drop
Terracotta robots zapping rodents. 
Ongoing Zagreb building projects. 
Witches, milk floats and Vauxhall cars in Bill's head. 
You got Tonsillitis from licking prostitutes’ rancid toes. 

Towel used for a century; six frayed threads on its length. 
Novel bus design; the driver drives from upstairs. 
You drink Earl Grey tea, cold. 

I so damn hate slow tardy days dragging till I get my dole for a new tattoo. 
Signed on Fri, a 3 day wait till pay day. 
It may not be paid right. 
Twits! 

Nebulous screwdrivers in the sky. 
Take me away from the clouds to a desert landscape. 
Tattoo my earlobe you minky moo.
