Stuart Rawlinson #18 - Killing Time

You try killing time
On an unemployed
Public holiday
The shops are all closed
but my pockets are empty
The parks are all full
part-time jungle jimmers
Relatives call ‘round
cartoon intrusions
Enough of your parades
interrupting my nap
What use these holidays
Without any pressies
        for me

  1. Never enough room under that newspaper, and believe me, I know...' on an unemployed public holiday' - great line that!

  3. at the end
    of the block
    where they
    charge you
    for the clock
    is the beach
    still free
