With No Time Left to Fool Around




Tour de France 2017
They said it was something else   
but when the truth came out
many people were left chagrined,
wondering how they'd been so
easily deceived.

Sometimes there's nothing to say. There is only the blurry horizon line
sinking into evening.

On the off chance
that ale falls from the sky
and roast lambs sprout
from barren fields, do not
stop to question your 
good fortune.
Eat and drink like
someone with no time
left to fool around.
