chill factor
taking the dog out
in the pre-dawn light

a packet of cigarettes
behind the shaving mirror
in a dimly-lit kitchen.
The ciggies were a gift
from a work collegue
who took a package holiday to Majorca
but he didn't like the taste.
I taught myself to smoke with that old pack
and regretted it for ever after.
