oh look, the marzipan ambush,
oh look, a burnt marshmallow,
oh look, Judy Garland, Avey Tare,
The corpse of the artist, oh look,
oh look, the day in advance,
oh look, samaritan duck meat,
shook shook a mind portico of
halberd Montgomery Montgomery
Humbert Humbert, oh look, Heaven’s Door,
oh look, oxtail soup,
oh look, throng in corridor,
oh look, leagues of Sung Tongs pustule,
oh look, lake como play tide in a movie,
oh look, of all stripes pruning the hedges
foremostly Advance Auto Parts,
oh look, under a curtain of Mantuan
doggerel in a whirlwind, Miss Schaumburg
oh look, the site is down
the sun is down, porter is slow,
I’m in Penelope art gallery selfie,
Miss Schaumburg, Johnson & Johnson
Geriatric capacity vial deliverer
closed down the street for Krabs,
back fused futile origami ugly duckling
do re mi fa sol, do re mi goreng
