Well, I'm not comfortable when
I over-think my thoughts and then …
Others may think less of me
'Cos I can't write with quality!
Unease I feel if home's not clean
Spiders may well lurk unseen!
Discomfort if there's too much dust
I just do housework if I must.
Tech stuff causes me distress …
Computer glitch? Makes me a mess!
Afraid to touch the stupid thing …
So call my son – his help to bring.
I'm ill at ease in certain ways
Wonder about my end of days …
Will they look after my much-loved pet?
Feed him well … or just forget?
Oh yes, I also feel unease
If talk is only of disease
Makes me feel so very old
Imagined ills my fears unfold!
It's hard to write of things like these!
I rack my brains … Muse – help me please!
Who thinks of topics such as this?
The next such one … I'll give a miss!
