That's a surprise I said opening my eyes
to find a steaming hot mug of tea on the table,

it's always fun if you're still able to have fun
after the taxes are paid,
when the bills are laid out end to end
and nothing left in your purse to spend
and by fun I mean krap I hope that
is clear to you.

She says have a sip
I reply
in a bit
but
She means the tea
silly me
and I thought
but never mind,
