Altered Expectations



Poem a Day is pleased to announce,
Like Samuel Clemens,
The expectation of his demise
Was premature.
Unlike mister Clemens
It was not a newspaper,
But Poem a Day’s own summation
Requiring alteration.
I suppose this is a long-winded way
To make an official declaration
His previous unexpected medical difficulties
Are, for all practical purposes,
Behind him.
The issue of not enough hours in the day,
However,
Is still ongoing.
