More from 2020...

 

FOR FITS SAKE

They told me at sixteen

You're too young to die

but we don't think you'll make twenty one

definitely not twenty five


In my seventh decade now

fighting fit for fits sake


Walking stick football

forty then forty five

came and went


Attack defence sub

Subbuteo Shove ha'penny

armchair TV


A new millennium

appeared swallowed me up

with all its apps aches

likes and dripping taps


Mobile madness

inbuilt sickness

inane sadness


The fat controller

breaks out Brexit

petit dejeuner demain

flu jab over

covert covid


Hold out your hand

and we'll stab you again

HAPPY NEW YEAR

 

NEARLY OVER

Another year kaput

the air borne

mind blown

window pain

No pane of glass

or grain of sand

everything swept

under the rug

to make a fresh start

Even the no mug flies have flown

We alone are caught

in the spiders web

Nearly over

it's not even begun

covid-21
