Today’s List

I’d actually done today’s list yesterday - a kind 

of compromise - and nothing dramatic anyway 

but you start off feeling caught in the middle of 

whatever had driven you back then - but this’s 

the newby isn’t it - so why do we keep hoeing 

th’ same row; isn’t really a redundant question 

if it’s not yet finished - and the obvious answer 

throws caution to the wind, if you’ve a mind to 

So we begin by examining the list - surely this 

isn’t the best option to pursue; look, we’d tried 

yesterdays audit & it rained anyway, why do it 

again, and th’ games changed an age from its 

beginnings when we didn’t know the plays; by 

this time tomorrow it’ll be that different again 

And what do you know, in next t’ no time we’ll 

have written the list for tomorrow …
