Greens

Half way through the year of the travel bong

With nicotine cordial-

A nursing tool for a caterpillar-

Exaketededly,

I realise that cigs haven’t been around that long

And perhaps like corsets

They will soon become a fetish

 

But at the root of it all

Plants have devious ways-

And as the cane and the bean

Still make their filthy way

Around the world

Some other seductive seed

Is evolving

haha Ray I think it is too long to make its way in right now! Maybe if it was sackly? It is actually what the caterpillar says in Alice in Wonderland. Thanks for commenting.
Thanks Steve, it is sackly about them, but I haven't given up, since the way I smoke is immensely but sporadically, don't think they suit me. Yes I imagine it is in certain cricles, just like toe nails and tea cakes. But these travel bongs. They make me feel like we are in a comedy about the future. x
