Wheeler


20 March 2013

The lady said: “It is your final,
Your final bastion of independence!”
And then she tossed another load
Into the dirty washing trolley.

Tbe lady was referring to
My absolute, ridiculous
Refusal to avail myself
Of my pristine new wheeler.

I’m stubborn and I hang my head
In shame, and would agree:
I am a naughty little boy,
But wait – what fun to feel so young!
