Confused

Confused mightn’t explain why the worst weed we 

encounter’s eagerly flowering in early Autumn; the 

normal thing you pest is to curl up & go to sleep - 

cooler weather should’ve suggested it was recess

& not a second Spring, & hey, we’d indecently like 

to bellow, Winter’s on the way, the done thingey’s 

NOT to remind us you’re still alive - unless it’s the 

first hint of a general & obscene Global Warming 

But then we’d have to see the bigger picture; with 

so little rain and extreme Summer heat th’ deluge 

in late March upset th’ applecart so to speak: OK, 

the bountiful flush of grass was a bonus - but not 

with this lantana ‘resurgence’ intent on driving us 

bananas - so quit it you pest, & wait until Spring
