I will dress in fresh clean
white tee shirt and scruffy jeans.
Scuffed-up monkey boots
don’t mean I can’t pop my collar.
.
Unbox socks of cotton.
No, I ain’t forgotten how
to tie my laces, I was shown.
Yeah, my hair needs cutting.
.
Wash my face this morning.
Pay the rent tomorrow.
Splash my favourite cologne
as if it cost top dollar.
.
Ride the train to Central.
Greet you at our coffee shop.
Carry your bags for you.
The bed is made, the cupboard stocked.
.
The rooms are clean and scented.
You don’t care much for such things.
But I will play guitar and sing
for you a song presented…

Some things even top dollar can’t buy…and such things are, by definition, priceless.
