they are ----------- and, I suppose one should easily have seen it years ago

but, of all the people - they invented the term snowflakes -

yet - they are the first to melt in any warmth whatsoever

the first hint of fear and they buckle like a thin piece of tinplate put over a gas ring


I've not ever seen such gutless wonders in such numbers elsewhere


they tell us over the years 'when the going gets tough, the tough get going'


by god -------------------- when the going gets a bit tough - you don't see em for dust -

off down the track screaming their dear little hearts out as they go

like a snowflake hitting the the bitumen on a 45 degree day
