Fish Fingers and Cream

by Bob aged 9

my family
are all really really
really picky eaters including me
Jim hates pasta and peas

dad hates ham
Jan lies about bacon
mum dislikes lamb
Tim will only eat burgers if they’re dipped in mustard

I really hate pizza if it’s in a box
Jim will never ever drink tea
dad refuses toast if he’s wearing blue socks
Jan rejects oranges

but every night we gobble down
the only thing that works
only one thing you could drown
in the suspense
fish fingers and cream!!!
