if you can talk the hind leg off a donkey
what do you get?
a three-legged donkey
which could be a winner in a
three-legged race.

Writer's cramp
I said,
writer's cramp!
probably the damp
getting into my bones

and yet here I am
a modern man in an
antique situation,

life's no funfair which
is really unfair
or not fair
when life gets there
without me.
