The Strangest of Sights


I have been driving around England

With my beautiful wife Silke

My wife is German

And I am English

We have seen many memorable sights

During our long walks

But one has cut into our memories

We had just passed through a nameless town

When we saw a red setter hanging from a garage girder

It was obviously dead having been shot many times

There must have been a reason for this slaughter

But neither of us questioned the mathematics
