Indecision is not always what you think it might be

So - I didn't make a decision
to buy cheap polyester trousers
nor did I purchase any shoes
and I couldn't make up my mind
about a fifteen dollar tea set
with white cups and saucers,
white tea pot, milk jug and
a sugar bowl - white, of course.
And I wasn't quite sure about
whether or not to buy another
granuflex dressing for my leg,
which seems to be healing,
nor was I sure if I needed
any groceries after all
so I entered neither Woolies
nor Coles, which I never use
anyway ...

............................but I did forget
my house key, which was dense of me.
So I called Sharon, who rescued me
as Sharon has rescued me before

................ arriving with a spare key
from which the key-cutting guy cut
two copies, while Sharon bought
pillows and an i-pod docking station,
then we sipped chai latte tea,
whatever that's supposed to be,
before Sharon went home, while I
frittered away indecisive moments
unable to choose between Thai,
Chinese and Indian fast food
outlets on the Mall's fourth floor
then settled on Wonton Vegetable
Noodle Soup from the Chinese... but
that turned out to have pork in it.
