• Snow swirled across the deserted playground
    where a lonely snowman stood its ground
    eyes and smile of coal, nose of a carrot
    the stereotypical snowman
    with the grin turning wider
    and the scarf flapping about
    it begins its walk
    to the convenience around the the corner
    slow, labouring, sliding steps
    because don't you remember
    it has no feet?
    Slowly, square inch by square inch
    it reaches its destination
    aduls stare in horror and amazement
    the snowman walks in
    walking out a few minutes later with a bag of icecubes
    after all, what are convenience stores for?
