Too Much To Ask


Pouring quarts in pint pots
Overfilling carry bags
Talking nineteen to the dozen
As the weight of meaning sags
Decanting water in the wine
Will cause flagging in the flagons
Lifting bulky swinging things
Ends up fulfilling rigid wagons
When all we need is just enough
To leave more time for hanging loose
Riding rough shod over rocky roads
Puts worn down strains on out of use
