#WDYS
He’s off to work
like every other day
but somethings missing
Casually left,
in favour of an early morning start
to get the work done
something that cannot be just
topped up with the morning coffee
at ten o’ clock
The engine is running
but its running on empty
relying on the stuff at the bottom of the tank
Redemption comes from a refill
passing by at eleven
something sugary, or protein tween two bits of whole white loaf
And as the waft of tea and bacon
passes through him like the wind
he suddenly feels whole again
