Inside

A Poem Of My Daily Routine

By Mike Singleton πŸ’œ Mikeydred Published 2 months ago β€’ Updated 2 months ago β€’ 1 min read

Introduction

Each day from the moment I get up I put a lot of things into my body, some to keep it presentable orthers to keep it functioning.

I thought it could be a poem

The music is "Inside" by Jethro Tull although I could have had "Keep Yourself Alive" by Queen.

Out Of Bed, When My Alarm Sounds

Now It's Time For A Wash And Shave

Toothbrush With Toothpaste In My Mouth

Teeth And Gums Attacked, Staying Brave

πŸ’ŠπŸ’‰πŸ’Š

For Seventy Years Doing This

Then A Long Swill With Some Mouthwash

First Injection Of Insulin

Then Ten Tablets, A Drink Of Squash

πŸ’ŠπŸ’‰πŸ’Š

Then I Wait A Bit Til Dinner Time

Ten More Tablets With A Cold Drink

Injection Two Of Insulin

Snack Or Fruit While I Work And Think

πŸ’ŠπŸ’‰πŸ’Š

Five O' Clock It's Time To Relax

Injection Two Of Insulin

Time For Tea, A Meal Not A Snack

Then Time To Clean My Teeth Again

πŸ’ŠπŸ’‰πŸ’Š

Maybe I'll Write Or Watch TV

Or Spin A Piece Of Fave Vinyl

Midnight's Coming In Bed I'll Be

The End Of My Day, That's Final
