NaPoWriMo Day 7 - An Ode

An Ode To Him Putting The Bins Out

It’s just gone midnight

three pints down

reeling from our pub quiz loss

convinced of foul play

from Quiz Akabusi

who scored a one point victory

in the bonus round

with the exact length of

Champagne Supernova

the kettle’s on

the dog’s taken herself off to bed

when we remember it’s Wednesday

and you have the look of a beaten man

accepting his fate

and head out

amongst the mattresses

and burnt out buggies

in to the alleyway.
