Text

START: Catchin’ the train to Liverpool,
and I finally start to let it go, the adrenalin, the pace.
I listen to some music.
It’s a long ride to Mum’s,
the ‘gloss’ of this legal life
melts into my seat
as the train winds its way to where I started out.

[... …]

END: Johnny swoops at the wall,
vegetable pieces fly everywhere.

I’m just gonna leave.

The last thing I see is my mum on the floor trying to pick them up.
Pieces of carrots and broccoli.
On her hands and knees.
