Agreeably Fainéant

Being reinvigorated by the indolent scheme o’ 
writing in bed means there’s less rigidity now - 
and it came about without th’ crowd-pleasing 
antics usually bandied the secret ingredient in 
recipes for fame and fortune; but for whatever 
reason, my MacBook Air’s reincarnation is no- 
longer referred to wistfully as a ‘miracle-to-go’ 
affair because its advent loomed loud & clear 

There is no comparing where I was with what 
is the scene now, & you can hem and haw on 
sacredness with milch-cows tethered in wait- 
mode at the back door; I’m more or less over 
it because it didn’t appear in those dreamlike 
sequences preceding grande celestial events 

And that’s your answer - somehow it’s meant 
to be a portent for things t’ come, and where 
we’ll be agreeably fainéant - t’ say th’ least…
