and tree trunk trousers
bidding for the largest lemon
on the shelf.
truck stop rainbows
and hounding horses
broken by a row over heights
shed loads
and bed loads
in and out
of the creepers who creep
in the wild night
those mushrooms
could be tamed
but don't want to comply
chucked and dragged
the ocean is alive with light
you crushed me
and it was joyful
battered cod
just say no.
i filled the stocking
with opulence
and a knowing smile
then you confessed your love
a sigh.
your hat nearly fell off
and we both laughed
loudly
