Day TWENTY ONE
HELLO AM I EVEN BLINKING
The ball's in the back of the net
but hello am I even blinking
I can't hear or see what's going on
the girls are playing loud music
one of them has got her tablet out
I try to make a joke tell them one
perhaps but they're not listening
they're too preoccupied with their
mobile phones and tablets of stone
graven images only they understand
Why are they even here I start thinking
I've had my dinner and taken my tablets
haven't they got homes to go to
I just want to watch the football in peace
why can't they leave me alone now
Oh no my team has scored and I missed it
they turn the TV off and drag me upstairs
I don't want to go to bed I scream at them
