The Essentials

I'm lucky, in that I don't need much to keep me ticking over very nicely, thank you very much.

The Essentials:

I had Shreddies for breakfast

and my keys disappeared.

I thought I’d be late for work

but wasn’t.

I bought a Mars Bar

and thought briefly, about bras.

I had a discussion with a work colleague,

about how disconcerting it is,

when women don’t try in porn.

I’ve eaten a tuna baguette

and received a text message from a mate,

saying he’s just seen Super Mario and a Banana,

attempting to cross the dual carriageway.

I text my wife to tell her I love her

and received one back,

saying she loves me more.

I have the day off work tomorrow.

I have to go to the hospital.

My shoulder isn’t functioning right.

I think I’ve over-done the exercises,

or lied on it too long, in my sleep.

It’s sunny outside and I’m happy.

Work, food, sex, health, family and friends.

The essentials.

And it’s only lunchtime!
