A LOAF OF BREAD AND A CAN OF SPECIAL BREW

He sat on a seafront bench
A loaf of bread and a can of Special Brew
By his side
Speaking to someone who wasn’t there.
Though these day you can never tell
Whether they are or not;
He may have had a mobile phone in his ear.
Then he spoke to me;
‘What are you fucking looking at, blue?’
‘Yeah’, I thought, ‘that figures,                                                                                     ‘And a And a happy New year to you too’
