as you may know,
it was a seedy day
yester day
so i lit the fire and sewed
superman pants.
used herring bone stitch
soothing in white
watched the film
flickering
and remembered
fridays was fish
we had herrings
fried the skin crisp
the roes plump and hard
the boys liked soft
suppose they would
used old cotton,
naturally and the wire
needle threader
fingered stiffed
sewing done felt a little
better
more coal on the fire
all will be well
