I awoke to see I have a black eye
Lucky 🍀 I’m not due in the office til
Friday. It might have healed by then, so I
Hope. Gerard noticed soon as he came by
From work, commented straight away, that’s how
Obvious the bruises and cuts are. But try
Though I might, couldn’t stay home, needed now
To go shopping 🛍 for pasta, coffee ☕️, so
I walked round the aisles in the shopping mall
A bit self-conscious of my looks, but why
Worry? Let them wonder, why not allow
Them that diversion? Has someone been cruel?
Or has he walked into a door? Poor guy!
PS Watched ‘Blood Orange’ - a film starring Iggy Pop
