Thank you so much to everyone at the M.O.D and the RAF and to all who have kindly supported my writing.

How are you?

July 5, 2026

How are you,
and do you really know,
have you found out about yourself,
from those psychology self-help books,
that you have read alone,
have you googled every condition that there could be,
have you developed hypochondria,
and every malady,
have you been to the Doctors,
for a remedy,
and now,
what did he say,
did he refer you to a psychologist for free,
yes, to someone decent,
someone adept at pleasantries,
and when you got there,
did he tell you to now,
lay down on the couch,
or upon a chair,
did he look into your eyes,
and hoodwink you that he cared,
and did he lighten your wallet,
with a delighted glee,
alas for you,
but, thankfully for me,
I do not go,
and I deny him his fee,
and instead,
I lay down upon my couch,
And I watch TV.
