A good rhythm and a story that works. I liked it straight away, putting your toe in the water and drawing it back at the end.

You need to play lotto and possibly win, then chew on that plum and sip on that gin, date those fine ladies whom may too have been re'nvented and your place in that world would be cemented. Beware, 'cause all of these changes will but veneer that which you are, when you can have them now as yourself although the dream seems so far. To accept and be ones true self is never bizarre, but the notion of moving down south maybe taking things just a bit too far. Especially when slovenly rhymes so close with southernly – it’s a sign. A terrific and delightful poem.
