Counting Heads

We apologize to anyone who might have expected a comment from us the last couple of weeks - we have been reading you....  It is the only relief in some very long days and we appreciate your philosophy, humour, wry observations, pathos, creativity .... Christmas Decorations....

I, the Tigger, have been endeavouring to eat the Christmas decorations.  Many have now been placed out of my reach.  I'm not as nimble as I once was, but I can still race up my CONDO at pace (especially if I see medications advancing in my direction).

Head count is underway in Greece:

Like drafting sheep

They're counting the Greeks

On Monday December thirtheenth

 

Forms pushed under doors,

How big  are your floors?

And have you got all your own teeth?

 

Who lives in your house?

Yours cats and your spouse?

And what did they last eat for tea?

 

What's in your bainio –

Shower, bath or none(io)?

So  how do you keep yourself  clean?

 

We'll measure your earnings,

Your hat size, your learnings,

And how you recycle your trash?

 

We're checking your neighbours

No fears and no favours,

Demographics are all about cash.

 

Were you born overseas?

Do you work for your fees?

Are your numbers and permits legit?

 

Economic and social,

Your dwelling and local

Are all in our counting remit.
