Making monkeys
I am listening
not hearing
the voices
so wearing
but
must put my time in
to get the gold watch.
I stay
but
don't see
no win
no fee
someone out there is
targeting me
which has no point at all.
and now I can't talk
no speech
no traction
can't walk
I'm a fraction of a man
that I used to be
then someone says,
time in for rhyming?
what century do you live in?
but
I never heard it
too much
#Brexit
going on.
