Barely Worth Writing About<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My garden\u2019s in its prime right now,
no veggies, flowers or shrubs.
There\u2019s not a single item
to entice those hungry grubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No nematodes destroying
my young tomato plants.
No need to tear my hair out.
No fits, no rages, no rants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t need no crop protection.
Don\u2019t need no pest controls.
No worries if the neighbour\u2019s dog
gets in and digs more holes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0My wheelbarrow and garden tools
are safely locked away.
There\u2019s nothing in the compost bin
and that\u2019s how it will stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I reckon I\u2019ll just sit around
and vegetate this year.
My\u00a0backyard secrets\u00a0are in the fridge.
They\u2019re labelled four x beer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
