Wearing steel-toed boots and a tin hat.

The length of mine.
In one hand he carried a lunch pail and...

Hadn't been used for years;
Furniture stood hard against it.
A knock at the front door meant a stranger.
Aunt Celesta makes a...

unending
dusk

electric
we become strange
symphonies sublime;
engraved in time
most rocks crumble
dissolve,
life has no need
for unnecessary
rhyme

Perhaps at three
you'll come to tea,
to have a cuppa here?
You'll just stop in
to sip dry gin?
I only have a beer.
To name the greats:
Pope, Dryden, mates?
The whole world knows their names.

Old Fogies: Part IiBut a strange change happens
at early nightfall
in those stuffy rooms and halls
and it suddenly becomes clear
all was not as it seemed
old folks transformed

Like children slowly scampering
out of bed...
