A bit of Friday Night Nonsense

when the kids are in bed
and the dishwasher swishes
rhythmically;
when the lights in the house
are down to two
and if we had an analogue wall clock
its ticking would be immense;
when i've settled down with chocolate
and a cup of hot cocoa
and i get my computer mouse
mixed up with my hairbrush;
then it's time 
to join the creativity queue.
  *form an orderly line
  *1.5 metres apart please (this is mid-pandemic, my friends)
  *sanitize hands before getting your thoughts
  *all muses have been deep cleaned
  *no shouting or singing - no undue droplets
  * masks on at the writing table
  *  1, 2 ,3 off you go then: Left, Write, Left, Write, Left...
