singing us back
mister bump & tickle
tony the tiger
exmoor ponies
next turn for coleslaw

walking pole to pole
freon in his veins
radio derby ram
darth vader’s head
gathering detritus

fridge magnet man
semi-skimmed insides
cool like the blind
with their shades indoors
white plastic skin

him of ants in pantries
humming like a sleeping bee
give him souvenirs
your trinkets & your life
– it’s another stick-up
