Arms folded, shoulders hunched
You unfasten the clasp on your bag
Didn't you have time to fix your hair
Though I must say that it goes rather well
With the early morning cappuccino
Drip drop, steam froth, a shake
Of chocolate topping, and a blueberry
Bilberry muffin; oh no you've asked
For the takeaway, two to go
Your friend, similarly arranged hair
She could be your daughter, except
I guess you are both about the same age,
Way less old than the guy with the full English
