Days of clear skies the temperature descending
Days of no telephone calls or all the wrong ones
Days ofcomplete boredom and nothing

Days of avoiding lunch for a phone-call
with change of plans for the day
Days of posting letters
Days of no mail today
Days of fatigue and amphetamine highs

Days of the 4:00 pm doldrums
Days of wonder drugs to challenge the common cold
Days of utter frustration
Days of forgetting
