Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

On rainy weekends in Woolloongabba
They chant the lyrics of the Beatles and Abba
But sometimes they go in fits and starts
With Sergeant Pepper and the Lonely Hearts

This display of peppers caught my eye, not just because of the striking colours, but also because the pattern was so irregular, with gaps in between. After I'd shot the first frame (above) I went closer to get a different perspective on the shot. At that point I realised the peppers (or capsicums, as they're called in some parts of the world) had been on display for a while, hence the slight wrinkles visible on the skin of some of them.
