Contemporary Life

June 08, 2019


Got my teeth white

Got my tan

For my holiday

On the sand

Had my jabs

And Brexit vote

Off to Palma

By big boat

Drew my income

As lump sum

Social housing

Navy Rum

On retainder

I keep the World

On my lilo

Toes up-curled

Motor-scooter

For my legs

Store deliveries

To my digs

Hired housemaid

Does with brooms

While I’m viewing

Daytime films

Reheat dinners

Throwaway plates

Like my knickers

Great Escapes

Scoot-out daily

Does me good

I must diet

Love fast food

Take things easy

As I please

Never grew up

Life’s a breeze
