I scaled a mountain
and swam through the sea,
traversed a volcano
and battled a scree;
I yomped through the forest
and hacked at the vines,
and paused on the way
genuflecting at shrines;
I hopped on a jet
and I circled the globe,
then got on a rocket
to join a space probe.
But maybe a Durham trip
would have been best:
I simply wanted
a Covid test.
