Fighting fabric that never fits,
never my idea for a fun filled Saturday morning. (hmmm never-never??? maybe friday not saturday for more ffff's????)
The sun streaming through the open window (sash to replace window adds ssses)
as the ice cream van chimes
and children demand change,
their X Box left unattended,
if only for a moment.
Tugging, twisting, turning,
feathers fluttering,
marshmellow moments (marshmallow - or is mellow intended?)
trying desperately to escape (yawn desperately to escape)
this secluded space
they should call home.
This was said to be simple,
but like a Mary Berry recipe
that offers so much with so little effort,
nothing is ever quite as simple as it seems
as the potatoes burn & the soufflé
is not as firm as we would like.
Finally, the material slithers into position, (maybe magically not finally for extra chimes)
a strange sense of satisfaction
simply premature relief
as the realisation hits,
there has been a casualty of war,
torn at the seams
you inwardly scream
"is their a Doctor in the house?" (sp there - super ssses sprinkled stanza)
good stuff cant stuff a pillow in a pillowcase either like it good stuff

My Muse, to labour chained
demure, pure, restrained
may yet escape -
i'll grab his cape
and hitch-hike to new planes
