I can't abear
written by Walter de la Mare
Peacock Pie (1913) Link to further information




 I can't abear a Butcher,
 I can't abide his meat,
 The ugliest shop of all is his,
 The ugliest in the street;
 Bakers' are warm, cobblers' dark,
 Chemists' burn watery lights;
 But oh, the sawdust butcher's shop,
 That ugliest of sights!
