| The Queen Of Mashed Potato | |

A tribute to the dinner ladies of the late sixties
Rake thin, Mrs Hendry
Stray tobacco on overall, in hair, on lip
Strokes forearms thickened by 20 years
of pounding ugly spuds
bleached red hands grip tight the masher
to ensure at least one hot meal
for the snot faced scarecrows of cheek
