Proverb

 

It goes without saying someone must lose,

The victors’ memoirs a reader’s ordeal,

So why say it? Or guess just how it feels

As you choose between Highlife and old Blues?

Every dream comes attached to some real-time.

Hold it right there mate, but it continues,

Insistent eyesight, implicit sinews

Working overtime for each backstory mealtime.

Children in the street are up-and-goers.

Many things they say confound all reason,

Barking up the right tree, siding with truth.

Laughing you reveal you’re long in the tooth,

Asking how is that in and out of season.

What’s it all about weekend lawn mower?
