37

FLAN FOR THE SPECTRE OF NICHOLAS

I think I like the idea of ghosts
And monsters. I think they yawn.
Sorry. I think they give us a run
For the exit of our rational
Prostitution traps, not the shopwindows
Of Amsterdam kind but the more
Lazy taped before a live audience.
A thin film adheres to the flan.
Let us remove the packaging
And leave the dish on the stairs,
As if whatever spook this be
Could be tricked into playing Santa!
