Quiet Tea

Can't  stand the word society
Provokes immediate anxiety
Same thing with psychiatry
It's the opposite of variety
It infuriates me justifiably
Makes me act defiantly
Almost all wrong entirely
I rebel against compliancy
Then I'll sit and have a quiet tea

I can relate to this one too, Tanis. Every time I watch the news, I feel anxiety about our society. Love the way you just sit back and have a "quiet tea" in the end. What else can we do? Well done!
