26th October 2024




cranky old geezer

burning his garden rubbish

green smoke, falling ash

the bra that I'm wearing is awfully tight

it's pulling at my shoulders and doesn't sit right

it flattens my boobies and stops them wobbling

but the pressure on shoulders is really quite hobbling

I'll get through jiu-jitsu and then take it off

through teaching and sparring, the pressure to cough

has left me too tired to night-walk the dog-

he'll pee in the garden come rain or cone fog.


It's morning and now my whole shoulder's in pain

One bra in the bin. I'll not wear it again.
