DRINKING IN THE DAY

Great while

The sun is up

A sedative

When it’s down.

I sat and watched

The floating heads

Move past the high restaurant windows

I lookedat the menu,

Brakspear battered haddock with spindly maris piper chips, grover clot mushy peas and tartar sauce to taste

I order another

Golden crown beer

And watch

The floating heads

Blur
