To make time for your art.
When life tries to push in.
A mate to meet, a dinner to eat, a phone call to take,

Spellings to check, beddings to wash, stories to read,
Realities to analyse.
Points of view to reject.
Frustrations to express. Relationships to mend.
Plasters to cut to size.

You to wash out of my hair.
This jacket to take to Oxfam.
Time to put my pjs on the radiator.
My comfy life always in the way of my art.
