University of Essex Pie, Antony Johae

This is a week of student pies,
savoury and sweet – topping free.
You’ll notch up plenty of points:
we’ve moved a decimal two points to the right,
so don’t forget to bring your phone
for topping up.

An octogenarian responds:
I am on the point of impatience.
I thought you said topping was free
yet you want me to tan an app;
it seems to be beside the point
- so much pie in the sky.
