taking deckchairs
onto the maisonette roof
during a long, hot summer
spent in Wolverhampton.
We were overlooked by blocks of flats
but you could see all the way to Cannock Chase
and watch the police chase the drug dealers.
Whiling away the day with a pack of smokes
and a box of watercolour paints.

I bought a box of wet dog food
but the dog hates it
when I soak him before he eats.
