Day 207 - Blueberry Muffin

10/17/2020

 

​BLUEBERRY MUFFIN

A man in a yellow jumper
is sitting on the bench
just in front of me.
He seems to be asleep.

All around him is a collection of holdalls,
carrier bags and a pull-along case.
It seems like all his possessions
are there with him.

I am sitting with my Americano,
and blueberry muffin.

After a while my man gets up slowly,
unable to really stand up straight.
He begins to load himself
like a donkey, with all his bags.

He’s clearly done this many times,
for most goes over his shoulders
and around his back
leaving his hands free for the final bags
and the pull-along case.
Off he shuffles.

Twenty minutes later he comes back,
 with all his bags neatly packed
into one shopping trolley.
He heads off slowly, down the street.

A  police car arrives
and travels alongside him,
 clearly checking out the situation.
My man stops as the police get out.
He follows them, with his trolley,
 to the police station.

I write this and finish my Americano,
and blueberry muffin.
