ANTICIPATING THE WEATHER

The wife suggested I tote

To work, my yellow raincoat…

May be unneeded

But caution is heeded,

In case I fall out of the boat.

–

Some of us don’t have cell phones

Or tablets to control drones…

We chose to be

More antiquity

Than modern society condones.

–

For one thing, there is price,

Unless a “free” phone would suffice…

“Free stuff” isn’t free

Which few folks see,

MORE taxes should make us think twice!

–

We do use media to deduce

Whether a raincoat will find use…

If memory serves,

A storm sometimes swerves

Then my coat is a convenient ruse.
