new (light) verse

this is worrying, it seems I'm developing something of a 7-Eleven fetish:


Our fast food, which art in Seven,
hot dog be thy name;
long processed sticks:
[of] lips, tits and dicks,
in Fam'ly as it is in Seven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and give us milk, cheese, molasses,
chips, nuts, beer and various Häagen-Dazses;
send our facsimiles far overseas,
and deliver [us] our packages.
For Thou art the King of Convenience
the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever,
Seven.


Our fan-tuan [飯糰], which art in Seven,
rou-song [肉鬆] be thy name;
such thin red tubes;
of deep-fried pubes
in High Life as it is in Seven.
Give us this day one bottle red,
one rosé, two white, four glasses,
make that three red, (there’ll be gate-crashers);
and lead us not into temptation
so deliver us some nibbles;
For Thou art the King of Convenience,
the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever,
Seven

Our fei-zao [肥皂], which art in Seven,
duo-fen [多芬] be thy name;
still pure white squares;
free of curled hairs,
in OK as it is in Seven.
Give us this day salacious texts,
with their pixulated naked mums,
give us lipstick, padded bras and packs and packs of condoms,
but lead us not into temptation,
so deliver us vibrators.
For Thou art the king of consolation,
the power, and the glory
from long before seven till after eleven
Ah-men!
