Mrs De Chirico's kitchen
Sardine smells linger
By the microwave
Nothing like
The dipping finger of
A girl adrift
Upon a river
Except both, I suppose
Might attract ducks.
Our kitchen doesn't see many ducks
An occasional duck in orange
Thanks to Marks and Spencer
Perhaps
It's Mark and his mate
Who row the dreamy girl
Down stream
By the weeping willows
Which, though green
Are nothing like
The bin bag
Which falls over
Differently
