Landscapes Fail

Just before the avalanche [Surlaw]

I bought a hat [Apsley]

Set a course for Jericho [Surlaw]

The mystic natives said [Apsley]

'Better Ararat.' [Surlaw]

As I tumbled down the gorge [Apsley]

I failed to sigh [Surlaw]

Or think of buying Jericho [Apsley]

To butter up my bread [Surlaw]

With bits of apple-pie [Apsley]

Now, spreadeagled in the vale [Surlaw]

I wink at you [Apsley]

Part-time Mayor of Jericho [Surlaw]

With your enormous head [Apsley]

You kinkajou ... [Surlaw]
