I have tariffed
the penguins
that are on
Heard Island

and which
you were probably
assuming
did not export goods

forgive me
they were taking advantage of us
so cunning
and so cold

I might try all of those ice creams, though the garlic and snail one would be mostly out of curiosity. The most tempting is the tagine-inspired one--if Tosci's offered that, I owuld defintely try it--and I would also expect to like the chocolate-and-sangria flavor.
