That is down on its luck 
Will deliver a pizza instead
 
The Afghan Hound

The Afghan’s a dog groomer’s...

"Ground Level Entry"

“She fits the bill”,
they say it 
insouciantly

visions of being 
carried in the beak 
of a bilious pelican 

where it builds

“The Lewis Trap”



Well, of course he's misanthropic

All things are possible when you believe
I accept (something) as true;
Just as I feel sure;
Of the truth of belief;

Just because you physically don't see the matter;
Doesn't mean it's after-matter;

The Alcoholic in Your Life

Or your mate, so loaded he can only stutter.
She might be the loudmouth at the bar,
