A Brew & A Chat



I wouldn’t claim it is a new beginning - that’s too 
estranged from veridical truth - but it’s sinking in 
and deftly playing truant t' old adages - yes, the 
ones we thought were always tried ’n true - or is 
it, forsooth, maybe they’re too worn to resist the 
vicissitudes this small invasion ventilates; but its 
change without dissent, & we will accommodate 
for good and for all because it does make sense 

And so, there’s no sides here; its at this juncture 
we dismember th’ fence, what should now exist 
is ambience in opinions hitherto ‘singular’ views 
commingling into that unity of who we wanted t’ 
be; and there I see the me I’m about to become; 
I say gidday mate, got time for a brew & a chat?
