shoe and paper.

early, nice and quiet.
wait
hear the sound of the sons alarm
and now there is a pigeon call outside.
nothing but the ticking of clocks and the occasional pigeon call now.

So go to grind coffee,
for the big Bialettin machine

Think about the drive planned for today to collect a door,
that was bought cheaply and will be needed for the sons room.

There is a shoe alone in the middle of the floor of the sitting room.
left there  along with a sheet of paper.
