Please Do Sit Down

Please Do Sit Down

Please do sit down

Take a pew

Put your feet up won’t you

No feet on the new coffee table

Do not slouch

Do not lounge

Sit up straight please

As you try to keep awake

Drink a cup of freshly brewed tea

Don’t get flake on my white suite

Pretty please!

I know you only tease

You know I aim to please

Please don’t fall off the chair

Please do recline

It’s dinner time

Pour a glass of wine

Time well spent

Boring TV on yet again!

I think I might just write something

Pen to paper

Words spew out

My pen let them run out

Words escape the paper and pen

Across my feet to where the new coffee table meets

Sprawling across the white suite

The words recline

Take a sip of wine

Words become subtitles on the boring TV screen

As I fall asleep

Slouching

Can I start again?

I’ll just get my paper and pen

Be careful

My words do spew

I better take a seat

I’ll make sure my words do not spill

They have a long journey to reach you
