Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, “Lenor?”
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenor!”—
Where the fuck is the Lenor?!

I am nobody; I have nothing to do with explosions.
I have given my name and my day-clothes up to the nurses
And my history to the anesthetist and my body to surgeons.
They have propped my head between the THE SIMBA Hybrid® Pillow and the sheet-cuff
Like an eye between two white lids that will not shut.

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills
When all at once I saw a crowd
Waiting for an attendant at the self checkout tills

I’ll take the ‘telling them when something’s wrong’ option instead please. Quite fancy being an internet complainer (outside of DiS)

She’s got an aisle that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sign
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stare too long, I’d probably break down and cry

Whoa, oh, oh
Sweet Albert Heijn

Themed weeks
Worth a peek
Middle aisle,
I like your style.

Aldi you remind me
Of sullen strops and nuclear death, piled miserable towards a heaven
That wants you cheaper unafraid of filth

Oh LIDL Stretford,
Why are you always,
Out of soured cream?
And start selling proper decaf,
You cunts.

These middle class pensioners,
Are all in a mood,
Still…
Your £12 pizza deal is quite good.
Godspeed you, M&S

No longer Nisa will I wait
I clench my fist frozen peas petrified in aisle 2 of 2
GIVE ME THE BEER AND I WILL LEAVE

Oh my supermarkets and grocers
Which of you to visit today?
To Lidl, the one a bit closer
Or Aldi, a lidl bit further away

Toffee yum yums though!
