Universal Ups and Downs

It appears
that twelve
eleven
fourteen
has been
for me
a two penny day.

2p.

I thought for a moment 
it was to be a seven penny day
7p,
but, as I bent to pick it up,
it turned out
what I thought was a 5p
was in fact
a 1 eurocent

how deflating…

Above
however
300millionmilesaway
Rosie and Phil
on a trip to Comet,
spending 
shedloadsofcash,
split up
over 67p
(it was to have been
46p
but Rosetta missed a crucial date
and they had to
change their expectations.)

Comet 
could probably have done with that sort of dosh
a couple of years ago.
