A substantial rewrite. I can't do poignancy so I've gone for crass stupidity.


A grandson clock, a football bat,
A doll with pubic hair:
They stock unusual objects at
The Shop That Isn’t There.

A taxidermy fish that drowned,
The Dawkins Book of Prayer:
You’ll see them if you browse around
The Shop That Isn’t There.

A realistic gents’ toupee,
A kids’ electric chair:
You name it and they’ve got it chez
The Shop That Isn’t There.

If you want tools by Piltdown Man
Or reggae by Voltaire,
Don’t forage any further than
The Shop That Isn’t There.
