behold the chives  (  s h e e t  )

…

as young bees bumble in their hives

& noah trawls through damp archives

as swiss soldiers play with their knives

such nonsense say

those old fish wives


as swifts they swoop the loop then dive

whilst cato street schemes & contrives

as summer bursts - oh man alive

i turn to 'erbs

behold the chives

...
