6922. IDLE TIME

IDLE TIME
I've been making coffee with my one-eyed sneer,
the girl, she said she'd follow me home  - but she
never showed. Dammit, again. Here I am alone.
The dark, black enamel on that kettel I pushed
over has a chip on it now like a flake. Couldn't 
hold its own against a harder force  -  same 
condition I find myself in. Damn again. 
Here the lamplight can shield my head. 
I'll sit, and pretend to be reading.
