hardware stores are optimistic places


Stephen Shore, Eddie’s Wagon Wheel, Bridge Street, Struthers, Ohio, October 27, 1977


**A New Poem by Klipschutz**

SNAP ELECTION

Oops! The Waffle
Iron Lady did

her my bad
predecessor

one bad better
and I am

the Egg Man in a union
tradesman’s truck

with an old school
megaphone shouting

Labour Lives
France Drinks To That


Thrown beneath the bus
she lies some more

chewed up and spat
The Fleet Street flacks

agree the PM tastes
like rubber chicken.
