You knew they all laughed at me when I wrote ' locked and padded'
volumes one to three,
but they never realised it was life and death to me
they thought it was just more of ' that poetry'.

In deep despair
I take a rope and the easy chair,
balanced on the second stair
I jump.
bump.
Wasn't high enough for the final bluff,
going to get all my stuff packed up and head on home.
