Doreen Yang

    Lettuce ignored the salad dressing

    Hot dog lay on a cool tray

    High heel knocked at the nightfall

    Long shadow haunted the short ray

    Swan kept on craning for his mate

    Black rain flooded the white bay

    Fat cloud sheltered for the thin scarecrow

    Repeated the boring game they often play

    Autumn leaves turned into green

    Flakes of snow fell in May

    I was crying over the laughing clown

    My love left before Valentine’s Day

    I couldn’t help chewing the corny story

    Although I was always worried he was gay
