II.I

In morning light her head is mostly clear

although her breath is visible in freezing air

gone at last delirium and fear

the sky outside the window bright and clear.

She switches on the TV for a glimpse

of what the world has done while she has slept

she's lost count of the days that passed her since

she caught the bug that left her body wrecked.

Between the static and the twisted dials

she passes kid's cartoons and Aussie soaps

but on the BBC comes plastered smiles

broadcast from gilded church with Godly tropes.
