72 Miles From The Sea

Monday, 6 September 2021

I’m not interested in retirement,

It’s not what I want to pursue

Listening to my arteries hardening

As I sit and attempt to do Sudoku

The meat markets are busy

I’d say you can’t go wrong

Horse meat prices are down

But they won’t be furlong

Old King Cole

Was a merry old soul,

But when he sobered up

He was an arsehole

I became very frustrated today

When repeatedly told to press any key

Because on my computer keyboard

I can confirm there is no “any” key

You know you are old when

You greet, with absolute delight

The statutory offer for you

To accept cookies on a new website

Mice have very high standards

Including what’s on their MP3

So when they want to chill out

They listen to some R 'n' Brie

My chauffeur is a Russian

From a city called Rostov

He’s very good at his job

His name is Pikup Andropov
