Ten Over Six

Pour piping tea Into imaginary cups Flying on saucers Dappling the tablecloth Which isn’t. Immerse the tarts In sweetened dregs Between spurious conversation With yourself. Who else can be trusted With yesterday’s forecast Of looming storms Stalking the week. Least of all on paper. Cheers to the hatter Twice-over the hare Excellent companions For a tea-loving fellow. Indeed. Indeed. Indeed.
