lyrics
Sunday 28th March:
No. No-one. Nothing at all. Stupid even to have expected otherwise.
Always a trial for me, the weekend. Outside, only metres away across the flimsy sagging fence, children laugh and shout in the sunshine. AARGH! Can I get no peace? Have I ever been alone, ever, despite my utter isolation?
Of course I realise I am what is known as ‘hungover’. For a man like me, unaquainted with liquor or the intoxication of crowds and revelry, last night’s escapade was an example of rare foolishness. Best to go back to sleep – but how, with that racket nextdoor? Blast this sunshine!
