i believe in a barista, coffee and jog
to cut through the morning fog
primary cafeteria, inchoate aroma
of wet salty hotdog
you get the key to a new place of great significance
brompton over, you invite; but take your moment first
i get there and the floors are up
circular saw sounds erupting
drag a trail through the dust
alone, together, us two and all of us
my girlfriend had just bought a flat and started doing the place up. she is very handy. i was getting in the way. on a run, i had a sudden recollection of waiting to get into the cafeteria at lunch in primary school. i usually had a packed lunch so it was novel. the food was terrible. it was notably briney.
