Museums
Poem inspired by all the museums I came across in Prague

Starting the morning stroll with encounters
Of torture, wax replicas and sex machines
And then by sheer coincidence you see a
Mechanical version of Bugs Bunny chomping
On a silver carrot.
It took me back to my time in Iceland
Where I saw the pink rock museum
Where public toilets used to be
Along with a penis museum
Which I didn't go in, I already have
Seen enough of them in my lifetime
I wonder if the sex machine museum
Is anything like the one in Amsterdam
These are some great gimmicks but I think
I might prefer to walk through the alleyways
Pick up a hot tea or mulled wine or maybe try
A honey wine because they sound good.
This holiday is going too fast!
