I'm not dying t' make th’ idea seem it was always
a commodity; although basking in sunshine's one
way o' faking y’ handle alfresco arrangements ok -
when you try t’ write - you find gaps between that
which works effectively at y’ desk but is ‘doomed’
to failure out here, inevitably, and without redress;
yeah, you can sneak back indoors - but I digress -
the aim was t’ be unaffectedly freed of ‘strictures’
which play havoc with creativity; yet they’re there
as the manifestations we carry everywhere t’ hold
us to reality we’d be lost without - well, damn me,
I’d swear it’s cool breeze and a reflected glare off
that glass-top table, along with need for cushions
on the outdoor chair to relax enough t’ feel freed
