Weekend afternoon

This is my kind of day
The kind of day you spend laying on the couch
Staring into a t.v. that hasn't been turned on
Smoking snipes to avoid putting on shoes
and going down to the market

The kind of day that is so quiet
You can hear the mice chewing at the walls
from the inside

And the only entertainment
is the drip
Of a leaky faucet.
