Abreast of The Times

I'm ahead of the game, paperless and electric,
progress is good, the point is it's hard to lick,
everything online - even a contraceptive policy,
to cover power cuts and a sudden pain in the guts.

Although, I prefer hands-on  to illegal hands-free,
experience comes in different sizes it seems to me,
I'm down at the sharp end, thrown in to the deep,
even when things are above my head, I'm easily led.

Now I have a partner, easy-going, no front at all,
in fact, instead of endowment, I just have a ball,
things are beginning to shape up, double entendre,'
no matter who you seek, it could be tongue-in-cheek.

Now the fruit bowl has plastic, it's really not fair,
because I don't like fake things  - I like a nice pear.
