Poem #2,867 | I haven’t been here

I haven’t been here

for a while – laid off

by laziness & a loss

of determination – I

am off-target of one

a day [by a country

mile & more] – All of

my diagnosis is now

back-burnt [except

skin itch & worse] – I

am going to out-live

eighty-five by nother

long country mile – &

I will advise my tribe

of such devices – Me

to defy expectations

set by every unclever

bastard met in wards
