Two poems (from the archives)

Lines written from inside
the Tintern Abbey gift shop

If this,
be but a keyring: no
'tis also a pen!

And what's this I see?
a mousepad with pastoral scene;
a Celtic sticker for your car
a stuffed dragon, a gold-rimmed plate

From joy to joy I did bound
Oh wanderer! Oh fickle mind!
Yet which will truly satisfy?
Rejoice! For twas then I found
An official Tintern Abbey towel

Ode to an eggwich

You are warm, like the sun
though considerably less hot

Sheathed in paper, sealed with tape
Perhaps you are shy
Don't be

You are inexpensive ($1.95!)
but never cheap
At least, not to me

Egg, bread, cheese
Mayo? I decline
Perfection needs no condiment
