guilt

and now the son is up earlier, and there is no will to get out of bed.
this is disgraceful, not to be up to wish him a good day at school, but to remain in bed like a bad parent, maybe this is true.

He is puzzled, normally his father is up.
this is just too bad.


Then he is gone to school, clutching a slice of bread



Get up at eight
make a cup of coffee
sit down at the table
read the news
and learn that the leader of the western world is just a blowhard bully.

But it would have been better to be up earlier

The wife is up now, she has a cough
another day at home
back to work on Friday.
after another thursday
a bad back
