Some Strange Play

The man sat on the bench, staring at a paper bag.

Everyday for 2 months, he came to see the bag’s decay.

Some strange play!

The man sat on the bench, staring at a plastic bag.

Everyday for a 1000 years, it came to see man’s decay.

Some strange play!

The Black Bin Bag of Time

The black bin bag of time,

sweeps across the city streets,

plundering the beauty,

and making wonderous the grotesque.
