Seymour’s Turf
I, still sometimes call at Pohoi
though it may seem his private bar
for there’s times he’s a public person
verbally playing Seymour’s roulette
in this Aotearoa Bohemian first.
Prices amid may very
flowing intake / flowing verse
as grey matter of Rod’s reason
churns out the oral banter
between quenching his endless thirst.
He’s done more than his bit
and, seen a bit more
with an eye still for shapes
legs too.
Imbibed Pohoi vintage
a blustering Rod Seymour
raving again!
Right up his well-rooted tree.
And,
I still sometimes call at Pohoi
at this Aotearoa ... Bohemian first.
