Teasing the Un-retired
By Larry R. Linville
“You have to go back to work,” I said,
“and I’ll go home for a nap instead.”
“It will just be a little while”
he said, to my smirking little smile.
When I got home there were things to do.
Too late for a nap when I was through.
After supper there was much more
and I missed out on my evening snore.
Another meeting I had next day
which kept me from finding time to play.
We took a lunch break and met again
it was time to eat when I came in.
Was this a penalty for my joke
and for the great fund I tried to poke
at that guy who was not yet retired?
Had all my teasing on me conspired?
