A wee run on pulling ones belt in.

Austerity the word of the day

One might say

Cut ones cloth to suit

Pull the belt another notch

More like two skinny

Well when you find your self

A.  cut too far

You feel all drained out

Don’t worry they tell you one day

Worry won’t make it better

Remember every-ones in it

A place like Triond helps with tips

Cool advice and ideas

Head work and home work

Win’s beat the loses

Through Triond you’ll find a friend or three.

    Clever little poem. I think I could do with a bit of austerity here in Canada, it\’s been awhile since I could buckle my belt.
