According to the radio
the rain is widespread
ha
and I'm spread out in bed
so
am I too widespread?

well,
I have put some weight on
but I blame that on the food.

The weekend sauntered in, took one look
and said, **** this, I'm off,
I'm off too but see no reason to swear about it.

like a Slinky it all changes
as my body re-arranges
when I get up to make a cuppa
and cuppa
makes me feel proper
British.
