These days rarely get together
talking (while coffees gets cold)
with erstwhile friends of fair weather
to go over ‘the same old’

But ain’t their fallibility
that owns the culpability:

Palpably tired of listening
to my pontificating psyche
those middlings in discourse piddling
interspersed with vague harangues spiky

So having heard myself for seven decades:
enough already of such tiresome charades!

spiky = peevish, prickly
