So long is about how long far is from not far
and that's not fair.

I opened one eye and all seemed well
so the other eye opened in sympathy,
this is how symmetry begins and we all know
that's the road to ruin.

Fancy that?
at my age I fancy anything that involves breathing and
believing that breathing is good for me
I hope to carry on breathing indefinitely.
