Wistfully he gazed over the snow laden field,

Deforestation rife!
The whole world pays,

Death In the Bath

She is no longer here
As one day she fancied a bath
Her son said, she was too old for all that
To shower instead and don’t be so daft

Horrendous Fruit
Horrendous Fruit
“Ah my eyes!” the acid sprays,
From the knobbly whorled display,
Of the thickened orange skin,
Pith and citric acid akin.

Cells explode and sour does too,
My eyes fall closed, My faces...

Hairs grow from her nose
Some sprout from her pointy ears
And in between her toes
She's got hair on her fingers
