72 Miles From The Sea

Sunday, 7 May 2023

Are you wearing a tired expression?

There is also a hint of depression

I recognize that look on a man

You’re a Manchester United fan

Seers of antiquity, interpreters

Of signs sent by the Gods

Through bird signs, animal entrails,

Or primitive Runic methods

I knew I had reached Middle age

We I went on holiday to Valetta

And among summer clothes

In my suitcase was a sweater

If the long held supposition or dilemma,

That the side effect of smoking marijuana

Can cause short-term memory loss, is true

Then what does smoking marijuana do?

For many, life isn’t very bright

Living on the Isle of Wight

It’s very much, the have nots

Outnumbering the have yacht’s

For many, life is quite hard

Living on Martha’s Vineyard

It’s very much, the have nots

Outnumbering the have yacht’s

Roman Politian Gaius Julius Caesar

The notorious Roman Geezer

Who was full of vinegar and starch

Met his end on the Ides of March
