Where starry jewels once decked the night,
But are now drossy shadowy blackholes,
And...

Good blockers in front of them;
Away they will run.

The strident, ringing telephone jars my eyes open with a snap,
I wake into the intruding grey and dreary external light,
Oozing through the curtains like some poor excuse
For something brilliant to replace the former night.

wrinklies, pensioners and plain old codgers.
A drain on society, archaic models of piety,
