The conjuror eats watches pens or keys

any diner chooses escargots

eat fire your mouth will taste like antifreeze

who knows if sharks will feast on bummalo

The Papuan sucks his friend's apophyses

those greedy mice leave nothing for the crow

mixing broom with chives shows expertise

but offering kids a sweetie that's no-no

The wolf adores the cock and the cocotte

a cat will munch a bird but spurn shallot

the local road laps up leaked gasoline

We've all downed plonk from Calais to Bangkok

at meetings nibble nuts and watch the clock

but best is grilled black pudding with sardine
