the cat inhabits the kitchen chair
glibly being a warm and spread pat
as my seat is taken i am stood
weight shifting between pained legs
taking in my breakfast like medicine
chumming it down
addressing none of its flavours or ‘mouthfeel’
a man passes the window
uncreased in a deceased business suit
yet bunched into himself under a brolly
it's not raining
but it was most-likely forecast on his cellphone
strange human behaviour…
i note my own
and remove the somnolent cat
to take my seat at the table

theres's me
in battle against my own healthy design
no way to approach a day
iffy from laborious digestion
