Hi Kabu - sorry for delay. I think I did go there once for a comedy act!
The Coliseum, I think it's called. I don't get out to the theatre enough, it has to be said! Life is a bowl of cherries, or even a minestrone!

Perhaps you're a cherry tree we all know that life is a bowl of cherries

By the way if you live near Manchester do you ever go to the theatre at Oldham? My very good friend manages the theatre and my very very good friend her hubby has his works performed there a couple of times a year.

Hi Proc - well, to be serious, the vegetative state is pretty similar to
the kind of peace of mind struggled for in meditation, so a little bit of the poem recognises that. Peace and stillness are its advantages.

Well-understood as usual, Troosha.
I sat there for about ten minutes - a long time for me - just unable to think of anything to write about! That lack of inspiration was my inspiration for this...!

Tony
Sounds like a little "movin' and shakin'" in required around there. Mental atrophy is a killer.
(Hope I understood your mood correctly). There you go again - taking a mood, for example, and crafting it into a good read!
