79 ǀ day of swine and roses

Uno, this is uno, the Copeland design.

We feature a Ferris wheel cutout at the county as the wildcard
if you don’t mind,
steamrolling, helpless,
rickety 13,
a coil no more than 5.

You can slide if you want to—
slide if you want,

but
don’t

culminating.

Draw the mad hatter my man!

It’ll be red or black—

That is my promise—
only $1 per game.

Dealer: We offer no other colors.
Skin us if you must, if you must, if you must.
We are ready for a scalping.
