The 5 Word Story

in the winter of discontent

to protest because her local

off licence and small knocking

shop that sold some tripe

as steak pie to truckers

who could not tell if

it was crap or pudding

trying to translate Spanishvans latest

version of the tango until

she gave up due to

cramp in the back of

his rusty old Ford Thames

that hurt her back as

it was a six legger

that carried Altitudes’ money to

the tax man once again

to help homeless lorry drivers

and one legged dwarfs from

the stockbroker belt in Witney

but not rich Smiths drivers
