Poetry by Peter Zelaskowski

 

Cliché, Open Brackets

The earth is my stage

(A hole in which will be my grave)

 

The world is my oyster

(Wanna buy a pearl?)

 

Workers of the world unite

(Down the pub)

 

Come the joyous day

(I’ll have overslept)

 

The meek will inherit the earth

(What’s left of it)

 

You are my love

(For the time-being)
