25th December 2021

 



almost light

in the kitchen

the stink of meat

four AM

and I'm convinced

someone has broken in.

Notoriously

the 24th is the best night

for burglars to raid your home.

There's no point in expecting the dog to bark.

He's fast asleep and snoring

as is everyone else.

Fuck it.

I go back to sleep.
