Shaken and Stirred

Like images of place and time
and moments caught in wonder
Stories from the moonlit shore
are amplified in thunder

Get your face into this boysenberry delight quick smart, before it lights up and pops it's own umbrella. One gentle glide around the arc will fuse time with space, leaving just enough room for thought. Undo your strap, this one's a belter, and twisting. Another challenge for the cork.


After the appetizer, a meaty surprise appears from a clean slate... with a small tree stuck out the side for gripping onto. Once you finish your flesh, licking clean the bones, and leaving the tree skeleton discarded... your tongue starts wagging... flicking around so quick it storms the cup, paying lip service to the waiter and ordering a tip. 


Now pops the main event... a full plate approaches from gravy station, surrounding months of built up muscle from the grass chewing machine. Sitting beside a mature rice paddy, every mouthful erupts on tongue, giving beef to throat with a slap, from the gummy bear monster. If you chews curry, it's good to share naan. Serve on a tray, with ladle.


And finally, we'll have the sticky rice and coconut milk from, where'd that manGo... over there... he's ordered a Grab and it's waiting outside. Quick, meters running, and it's hot. Might go for a swim after.


What would the critics say now...


- An elusive shadow... a huge wave will be needed to wake up the tide. 

- A big mess... the iron'll go on strike, causing fabric to shrink and eyes to pop.

- A colourful reaction.  Charting it's own course and giving no damn to whoever seas it's content.


At times of huge personal growth...
Did anyone stop and think 
To ask the piggy
If they wanted to be
So stuffed

All that is gold
Does glitter
