such autocratic bullying

woke. in the night the coughing cured with a glass of red Spanish wine, not what the doctor ordered, but effective.
Read about the american attack on international diplomacy and decorum
Read about European helplessness in the face of such autocratic bullying.
The dreams are spoilt for tonight, but it is good that they are mostly forgotten

wakened at five, the alarm, the strumming alarm from the tablet, the machine does not know that it is Father's day today, a holiday, there is no need to get up.

and it would not work, anyway.
Every joint is sore and stiff.
Return to the bed from the bathroom.
Try to sleep on.

Then the son's alarm with it's punishing regularity
then it is turned off.
He must be awake, that is good.


A fit of coughing, the joints are stiff, the bones are solid, every step painful

what is this?
will the doctor tell me tomorrow?
or will he just prescribe an antibiotic?
