Paul Tristram- A Poem

Supper

It’s a quarter past midnight

I’m hungry, off to the kitchen.

Two slices of extra thick Hovis bread,

four slices of chicken breast,

eight slices of cucumber,

two leaves of lettuce

some mayonnaise

and the eighth can of lager.

If that ain’t art

then you ain’t tasted art!
