Notes About The Poem

malaise

Listen to poem:

December Days

In the heat haze of December Down-under
I laze on the beach and gaze
at the sunrise and sunset that belays
my drift towards the end of days
as another year passes away
in the relentless tumble of sands 
in the hour glass of week days
and weekend malaise of tossed salads, 
served with mayonnaise.
