COFFEE

I saw him staring at me

the man under the tree

and then he fell over

flat on his back while

I sipped my coffee.

Pissed or doped

to the eyeballs

it took a man with

Downe’s syndrome

to suggest that someone

called an ambulance.

I paid for my coffee

and left, not wanting to be involved in

the circus called Bath.
