I am showered.
Clean.

A long day,
nose to the grindstone.
Exhausted.

Personal politics,
are waged through and
around me.

My head down,
eyes averted.
Drained.

Please leave me be.

Nearly time to go,
it is almost midnight.

Finished!

I move quickly.

Make your favorite
sandwich.

Leave.
No goodbyes.

Finally home!

Windows are still open.

You are not there?

You said you would?

I am showered.
Clean.

You can keep your sandwich.

I don't like banana and
honey.
