Six One

entry picture

He sat alone in the

Corner of the room

On a well-worn tired

Armchair. 

Working boots kicked off, 

While current affairs

Aired on. 

 

Tired eyes stared into wonder

As his right hand cradled

His weary head. 

I wondered was he tuned in

When he looked

Miles away from home.
