Not Long Left - Counting Numbered Days

Not Long Left - Counting Numbered Days

Four hundred thousand drops of rain br have fallen since I last blinked. br Seven clouds stretching from one town br to the other have eaten each other. br One magpie has spent the morning br bathing its wings in the house next br doors gutter, fourteen leaves have br fallen from the apple tree that hangs br over the wall like a tired drunk. br six times now has the red light on the br kettle flickered, once more than br clanging pipes inside the wall. br Not once has the phone chirped its br usual tune, not once has the sickness br inside my insides subsided. br I am counting numbered days br wanting just the one.
