HOUSEKEEPING

 

The pseudo-lion of Pseudo-St. Jerome

Whom I've ignored since 2017

Has a contract with what seems

To be my signature obliging me

To write about him every five years.

He's put on substance but 

Still looks like what a child who's seen

Many dogs but no lions might imagine.

Pseudo-Jerome, he tells me, has established

A media presence (I haven't the heart

To admit I'm not sure what that means)

And now casts a shadow on sunny days

Or even two of them or three.
