happily chant about the repetitions of this
administrative miracle brought about by a
diligent application of bureaucratic magic:
Obtained proof of leave at my disposal and

Drink a leisurely cup of coffee & languidly
wander my lovely parlour - delighting with
its shiny silk, brightly covered notebooks
strewn everywhere - as happy as I never
dreamed I could be when I was small…
