wispy clouds
occluding the sun

how was I to know
he'd "jusrt put it there for now"
among the plastic bottles
and empty drinks cans
ready for the recycling.
I knew it was out of date
I bought it over twenty years ago
hoping to convince someone
of the existence of demons
and only later realised
there was no 'c'
in the name 'Antiseptic'.
