A three pipe problem - brighteyes
http://www.abctales.com/story/brighteyes/a-three-pipe-problem
A lovely poem, and not only because I have a big penchant for Sherlock Holmes.
I particularly like
Mrs Hudson's breathing loops,
all these forbidden.
Cadaverous, cat eyes bright
above dark half moons. A twitch
in a cheek fold
And:
Brows level,
jowls accented
by some fairy felt-tip
And
Recruitment cries.
Only word that I don't like is 'cobbles' and that is only because the rest of the poem is so original that cobbles seems like an easy choice, not original enough in the context.
"I have a room for life at the Home for the Chronically Groovy."
"I have a room for life at the Home for the Chronically Groovy."
