The sheets are nipped and tucked;

I have abstained on my pillow.

Here are the hairs of the dog:

the noodle poodles.

Duck down: this is my

freedom of information, and my

last word on the mattress.

In my bedside tumbler,

the culture of excuses. There is a

laptop on my headboard.

It runs on castor oil. And that's

the remains of a Chinese takeaway.

I have made my bed, and I intend

to lie in it.
