Tango Tommy

Birdsong running at thirty three and a third,
refrigerator on overdrive
heat slows down the thoughts of being alive
but with will we will have to survive.

She pruned the grapevines outside in the garden and soon she will prune again.

I dug a hole or two
broke some rocks
the usual sorts of things I do
when I'm on holiday.

She cooked a meal, a Spanish dish,
by She I mean my wife and She's not Spanish
the dish was Spanish

I hope that's understandable.

Now
a siesta,

I will dream of a gymnasium
because I must get my daily
exercise in

Overall
I'd say I was in good shape

but a little trimmer wouldn't go
amiss.
