Free at last..........

Doggerel Dave

Ennui runs deep -

Just out of lockdown......

I'll go back to sleep.

    Must have been written through too much indoorness dear Dave - - hope that aching listlessness went into the bin and yes - - "free at last" needs yet another quick shortie methinks.

    • Doggerel Dave

      I'll try, Fay......................................very trying, I am.................

      • Doggerel Dave

        I’m out, I’m out
        Out and about
        Mask at half mast
        Someone went past…

        Life will never be quite the same again
        Our future, if it exists, will cause pain.

        So there you go, Fay.... Remember the old saw "Be careful wot you....."?

        Can only add, Take very good care of YOU.

        Crapped in for so long
        Wonder how I should wander around when it’s all normal out

        • Doggerel Dave

          Precisely - thanks for your call.

          • Doggerel Dave

            Yes, orchi - I can't hear you.Go back yourself, or sing a song while I'm asleep and my ears are out of harm's way..............😊

              Yep - moderation in all things Nev - especially something as moderately long as this....

              My life is ennui these days mate. Can't even take a trip around the supermarket aisles. Shielding they call it, now i know how sardines feel.

              • Doggerel Dave

                Yep - must be a drag, when you have to be doubly careful..... no that doesn't even begin to come to grips with what you must be going through right now, dusk. I'm deeply saddened.

                Apathy is the plague lol.

                • Doggerel Dave

                  Aye - apathy and a perverse willful belief in........?

                  Thanks for calling by, Nicholas.

                  May that lockdown never be with you again Dave.

                    I would be very lucky Andy - and I don't believe it for one second.
