If I eat at all

I eat standing up

while moving

at my desk

with the other hand on the wheel.

.

My evening meal often just what’s left on the kids’ plates.

.

I do the Tesco online shop while I’m on the toilet.

I book tennis lessons while queuing at the post office.

I voice-note while loading the dishwasher.

.

Hey Siri

remind me

Hey Siri

Hey Siri

.

Could you just

Are you free to

Can I ask you to

.

My hands streaked in biro

with todays reminders atop yesterdays.

A badly tattooed to-do list of ghost tasks that haunt me with their restless incompletion.
