It took a bit of persuading but the beast finally
saw reason; in the event he waited until I was
relaxed in the ‘Brazilian Chair’ before positing
his case for a promenade - and one need say
with apposite reasoning; his argument held to
the principle of fairness, where we try to keep
perspective freed th’ bugbear of, Who’s Boss,
OK, so therefore we’ll do it now, and my way
Altho ’twas no easy negotiation; by ignoring 3
suggestions a stroll was on offing - ostensibly
because he pretended to sleep, I can actually
see his reasoning ratiocination; crikey it might
rain like yesterday & no-one even bothered to
accompany me - so lets delay a wee bit more
But the instant I’m composed in the chair he’s
all energy and get-up-and-go; - Yeah, c’mon -
let’s hit the trail now - no need sleep on it me
ol’ mate, we’ll be late & miss the bus or some
other calamity such as those you geriatrics’ll
forget you’re supposed to be fussing about
