Utility

A poet sits against a bin

The contrast between beauty and utility must be appreciated

It really is a very attractive poet

Imagination attempts to run wild

The smell is quite distracting

Headache

He informed his wife couldn't swallow pills

She insisted he try taking one to solve his headache

He proved his point and choked to death

She was just pleased he wouldn't be having any more headaches

River

I'm on a boat again

The river winds

The boat winds

The fisherman hates me

I smile at him

I don't even like the boat

Its facilities are inadequate

Painting

He looked at the painting

Trying his best to feel some kind of emotion

It was a lovely shade of beige

Pockets

I shove stones in my pockets as quickly as possible

Leave my pockets alone

I can't carry your phone

My pockets are filled with stones!

Garden

A gardener dug up the whole garden.
Things got a bit out of hand after concerns the six foot flower bed looked suspicious.

Straw

The straw in his milkshake was upside down

It looked like a straight one the cool kids would use

He liked to fit in

He hoped no one looked inside his cup

Classic

A man bought a classic car

Having convinced his wife he'd fix it up

She looked at it through the garden window

It had been propped up on bricks for a year

She was sure it had four wheels when it first arrived

The dishwasher was almost finished

Risk

A daredevil swung his window wide.
The interior light was on.
It was night time.
It was thrilling.

Toast

Hank fanned at his meal.
Still hopeful certain issues would resolve.
Could cooling the toast give him what he wanted?
Optimism began to wain.

Walk

A poet strolls through Southbank

Musicians strum guitars

Singing the same songs in the same tepid tone

It spots a twat of poets gathered around two type writers

The poet hates itself

Salad

Tonight he felt extra posh.
His tinned fruit salad was emptied into a bowl.
He ate with stainless steel.

Spam

There is a violent vibration against the desk

It's much louder than he had anticipated

Shock is quickly replaced with excitement

He checks for messages

His visage is one of disappointment

Berry

Mary Berry's glowing white teeth
Scrape against her spoon
They look very realistic
Her wrinkled lips unfurl with a smile
She chomps through the cutlery
The sponge cake is delicious

Idiot

Everyone kept calling him a 'right idiot'

He thought this was great

Being right was rather pleasing

Snip

The husband wanted to cut his hair

But the wife wouldn't let him

He started cutting one strand a day

Hoping his wife wouldn't notice the gradual change
