‘Crumpets face inwards’
That’s what the toaster said
Butter should be lathered
On the top-side of your bread.
‘open other end’
read the bottom of the can
never cadge a lift
from a geezer in a van.
claymore instructions are quite bland;
‘front toward enemy’
I completely understand.
but ‘crumpets face inwards’
remains a mystery
and so I stand and ponder
this new reality.

| Very funny and thought provoking muse. I'm still scratching my head. What does it mean? |

Toasted crumpets must be the equivalent of Egos.
Thanks for the smiles.

Definitely brings a giggle, and the photo legitimizes it to perfection!
I especially like the reference to "Open other end"..we are inundated with instructions:
"Tear across dotted line"
"Do not puncture covering"
"Use before 8-18"
"This end up"
"Peel back here"
I am surprised we don't have one that says "breathe".
I have to go now; my muse is picketing with a sign that says "Write!"
