Inspired how @brianbilston uses common idioms, words and phrases and then turns them on their head, I wrote "Bottomless Brunch" #BrianBilston #poems #poetry #funny #bottomless #brunch #poets #poetsofmastadon

America Is A Gun

England is a cup of tea.
France, a wheel of ripened brie.
Greece, a short, squat olive tree.
America is a gun.

Brazil is football on the sand.
Argentina, Maradona's hand.
Germany, an oompah band.
America is a gun.

Holland is a wooden shoe.
Hungary, a goulash stew.
Australia, a kangaroo.
America is a gun.

Japan is a thermal spring.
Scotland is a highland fling.
Oh, better to be anything
than America as a gun.

Are any of you enjoying @brianbilston‘s brilliant Days Like These the way nature intended?

I love to think of us all enjoying the 15th January ode to Wikipedia together.

My copy was a present from our mum - thank you!
