#466 - you can do anything till you die

you can do anything till you die

 

situps pushups

drink water

try this mushroom

take the pills

 

adopt a page and be the poem

stake out an inch of sky

try your head on the block

 

buck up

defy foul fiend

file the next damage report

 

the fray!

and one way or another

 

the marathon

couch till you’re potato

slip down back behind the sofa

 

preen, pick the scab

never be never be…  

 

whinge grizzle, found

play the key that won’t go

 

sing for joy

spring to the dance

 

dive deeper than the lungs let

 

go gingerly

leap faith

in favour of some cogitation

 

follow orders

bark them

lie back for a tummy rub

 

wrestle a childhood

make self-abuse

 

be smack kebab, do dizzies

 

doubt the each decision

brook bastardry, lay low

 

fancy as you can in the book

spin a yarn or fall for

 

go loving life, making do

and derring too

 

keep counting

moments, breaths, breakthroughs

friends till gone

 

set day to motion

live in clock

and hands to mouth

for horror

for what time brings

 

gurgle coo

salute until the sun is gone

be grateful

though there’s none to whom

 

put down the head

take up a heart

pluck at these least strings
