It starts to form a habit

You order things online
becasue you like pacakages arriving in the post.
It's always the same person delivering.
He's called Andy. He used to wear
a name badge but either he lost it or
the delivery company changed their policy
on employees wearing name badges
or maybe it's one he made himself,
a badge making machine that's now
in his attic he always liked people to know
his name and as he walked up your driveway
he knows the reason for all these deliveries.
You get home from work. Another difficult shift
it's not the work itself it's your colleagues
but it's fine becasue when you get back
there'll be something waiting for you.
You can't remember what you ordered
just something to keep those delivery vans
flowing through the traffic. Make up brushes
charms for your bracelet. A badge making
machine, a new bicycle inner tube.
