Short Flavoursome Poems

Listen to poem:

For if my heart
Were such as this
With taste and tears
On every kiss

Flowers to fauna
mother nature’s larders full
of flavoursome treats

Free to the finder
fare fit for a king or queen
three cheers for free food....

Chemical bomb leather shoes
Armpits oceaning

Give me Nigeria 
Or the jungle
Where the birds don't sing

My wife has been reading The Return of the Native for ten years
But does owning an AK-47 count as knowledge?

To the bat cave...
