Mr. Whitaker's pipe (Rensaku)

so many rooms..off the hall
so many rooms..to explore

.. ..murdering animals..come to life
.. .. .. .. ..staring eyes..look away

.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..the patterns..on the shiny vases
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..like ribbons..telling a story

.. .. .. .. ..medals..and a Maori chest
designs sewn on..a wedding dress

.. .. .. .. .. .. ..the waistcoat..and the black top hat
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..Wellies..with big steel toe caps

.. .. .. .swords clash..on the scales of armour
an incendiary bomb..goes boom

.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .smoke drifts..from Mr. Whitaker's pipe
as he rides his penny-farthing..away
