It's Still Life

Playing with Twiglet #113, the phrase “a pinch of fog”.

Same Thing Four Ways

A man’s eyeing my garbage bins,
Gnats heavy around his head.
He’s thinner than a pinch of fog.
I’m trying not to be annoyed.

I’m trying not to be annoyed.
A man’s eyeing my garbage bins,
He’s thinner than a pinch of fog.
Gnats heavy around his head.

I’m trying not to be annoyed.

He’s thinner than a pinch of fog,
Gnats heavy around his head.
A man’s eyeing my garbage bins.
I’m trying not to be annoyed.
