re-usable lottery tickets
a heron eating herring
the electric spoon, heated so soup won’t cool from bowl to mouth
In time, you’ll find it none too wise
To base your acts on other guys.
a newscaster’s slip: “black market” for “Blackwater”
a spork with a knife for a handle: it requires a special mitt so you don’t cut your hand
It’s disturbing to see a dog dump on the sidewalk when it’s dressed in a jacket and booties.
Turn a Gideon Bible into a puppet: round eyes on top, book opens to become mouth.
pay pay yap yap
discomfort food
You cannot barter
With a martyr
Perhaps you could
If he were smarter.

This may be one of my favorite collections. The doggy dump may take the prize, though they’re all nice.
