It’s not pleasant to have to

Get-up early Monday morn’

Commencing by bus to Klnbg.

However ten to nine am.

The attractive dentist opened

Her praxis and let the poet in.

He was in no mood to conduct

A conversation

But talk facts of his broken-out

Tooth from its pink prosthesis.

For a two hour’s wait he walked

Past the Stadtplatz shops

Then sat down at Hotel Anker

For a cuppa.

He’d draw and reflect upon his

Last five days he’d spent with

Mr.T as a PA

In the pleasant city of Bratislava

Pozsony

Pressburg

Exposed to an icy wintry snap.
