Poetry

✴︎

2.12.2026
What's his secret?
a ninety-six year old allotment keeper
the subject of this door-step conversation
while groceries are delivered

My customer straightened up
It's simple, he said
Keep moving, eat less.
with that he handed back the doughnuts
Credit me for those, please
I don't need them
