it’s ten  (  t e n  l i n e s  o f  t e n  s y l l a b l e s  r e  t e n  )

…

green gleams the bottle & speckled's the hen

frog hops the throttle as piss squids the pen

dowsers in trousers & farmers in dens

downing street's weasels are marching again

clatter commandments & flutter's the wren

butter's the nutter as clutter's the zen

fingers with thumbs in plus extras in fens

looping the yule lords when leaping the glen

over october in inkblots & then

onto eleven etc. - it's ten
