tomorrow
I will eat some eggs
and drink some coffee

I might have a bath
obviously I’ll get dressed
and unless I die or get abducted
I’ll have a day very much like today

interspersed by the love of my cat
who likes to sit on my lap and purr

it might snow
I might feel good for a minute
about something
but I can’t think now
what that might be

maybe a song will pop into my head
and I’ll hum to myself
or maybe not

tonight I will sit here
whilst I finish this beer
and this poem
and maybe another
