We channel horseradish
On the daily vacation tab
It's kind of ridiculous
But people pay us for it.

I wish I could start again
Wiping my arrows clean
I've done it all wrong—
Somewhere the squid.

When it goes thump thump
I rally my faculties
Put on the goggles
And snap on the gloves.

Two cars are floating
Off through the reservoir
In one my darling
In the other my love.

We channel mayonnaise
With cocktail umbrellas;
So I keep a diary
And sleep on my back.
