Yep, I’m aware I’m due for a new pair of sneakers -
the oldies are subtly showing their disrepair - even
seams are yawning - and, where the rubber meets
the bit over th' toes they’re expressing those gaps
that’ll eventually expose your digits without regret
But I’ve been down this track; a few years back th'
wise solution would have been buying two pairs in
th’ first place - while under those circumstances it
made sense, we’ve become Elders since, who’ve
time t' plan th’ necessary ‘Target’ shopping spree
Therefore - it isn’t the worry taking first place on a
list o’ things we might need to contemplate for th’
next visit - and that’s maybe within a week or two;
unless Her Ladyship gets into visionary mode and
her inspired imagination sees something that we’ll
experience dire penury without - & no, I do not try
to officiate, it is beyond my capacity; I just let it all
happen in th’ same space my sneakers exist in, &
as yet we see no need to accelerate anything else
except good-deeds-existent retirement harmony
