The News Where I Am

 

Today, my travel card expired.

Got soaked through twice. Oh, and got fired.

A dog bit me. I lost my phone

but

you’ll be there when I get home.

A pigeon crapped upon my head.

I ate a slice of mouldy bread.

I lost a tooth. I broke three bones.

                Who cares?

                                You’ll be there when I get home.

My lottery numbers came up today

(a shame that I forgot to play).

I think I’ve got a kidney stone.

                Like, whatever

                                You’ll be there when I get home.

The ice caps melt some more each year.

A new world war will soon be here.

The most perfect day that I have known!

                Because

-          Did I mention this? –

You’ll be there when I get home.
