1 BIN
maureens not put
her bins out again
i wonder if she is dead
or
just
laying
in
2 OK
( shes fine
never fills them up enough she says )
theres
a
photographer
round
the
corner
she says
who lures in baby badgers
from the fields
with pet shop chicks
and she hisses at the streetside cats
to keep them off her tiny lawn
3 PAPER BOY
the paper boy
is
such
a
bedraggled orphan
in
the
filthy
night
hood down in the rain
defeated by the wind
that i gift him a chocolate egg
from wheeliebins.co.uk
they
cull the badgers
to save the cows
to kill for lunch
[ i
suppose
tb badger mince
is
a
bit gamey ]
their
chemical
warfare
is
insect genocide
to save cash crops
we leave to rot
for
subsidies
[ no
money
in
bug sandwiches
not yet
anyway - prob wont be long tho . . . ]
they
use
child-mined super conductors
in
every
single
electric
thing
we clutch in our grubby fists
and prod with greasy fingers
and then dump on their beaches
in a dangerous tangle of secrets
when
we
get
a
shiny new one
and
we
shop away misery
and our complicity
with same day delivery
only one click away
in
some
golden age
of
selective plenty
[ i
wish
my
hands
were
cleaner ]
