Things to Do

If the rain eases
and the mist rises,
she’ll take a stroll
along the coast road.

Stop off
at the cafe
near the pier
where she sees
seals...sometimes.

If the rain stops
she’ll change
the sheets
on their bed...

maybe the towels.
Hang them out;
if they don’t dry,
tough-shit...But
then again

if the clouds lift,
she’ll twist her hair
into a chignon.
Put her face on;
paint a smile.

Feed the cat.
Grab a pen.
Write a post-it.
Catch a train.
Get a life.
