It's never too late

to creosote a gate

or glaze a plate

or befriend a snake

or reseal a grate

or overcook steak

or lose some weight

or receive freight

or ice a cake

or spoil a wake

or drink a lake

or revive a fete

or alchemise paint

or accumulate bait.

Do it all, mate

whilst you're thirty eight,

before you disintegrate.
