when I was in my first year of university
I would often buy a bag of turkey dinosaurs
which I would eat with crinkle cut chips
heavily salted
with plenty of mayonnaise
and barbecue sauce
and tomato ketchup
and with full fat milk
in my coffee
and strawberry milkshake
at two in the morning
because
for Christ’s sake
I’m an adult now!
