Could it be those biscuits that made me ill?
I bought a box coz I needed a drum,
Ate the biscuits in two days, and I’m still
Living the consequences. Head athrum
Last night in bed. Decided not to come
To work today. I’ve missed a small meeting
’Bout nothing in particular. The sum
Total is no-one’s bothered. Sun’s shining,
And it’s lunchtime. Last night I was making
The usual sandwiches, so now to fill
My face with a banana and with them,
Since I’ve usefully spent three hours writing.
The novel’s slowly being born. A thrill,
And as painful, as a real birth, eh Mum?
