Poetry: Undone

by Moeze Lalji

My shoe lace is undone
My wife is undone
My job is undone
My children are undone
My parents are undone
My lips are undone
My friends are undone

You name it
My friend
It is all undone

Hey! take it easy
That's life

It is all undone

Just let it be

That's the way
It is
All undone


If they are not
Your shoe laces
Leave them
Undone

They will all
Get round to it
Eventually

Unless they all
Want to trip
Over their
Own shoe laces

You are not Lee Majors
The Bionic Men
Even he retired
Undone from acting

So put your feet
Up
Now and then
And enjoy
Your smiling
Real Toes undone!
