Aug 2017
wake up doped up
slept too long.

my body's the apothecary
needs to move it on
I rise
a prima gone to seed
needs weeding?
I need none.


Forty minutes in and
I think
that I could win the day
if where I'm going
goes the way
I'm going.

I'm going
going
slightly gone
but first
some clotted cream
and I might have one
more scone.

If I have tea for breakfast
and breakfast for my tea
why would it bother you
it doesn't bother me.
