I am adrift
on an open
unending
sea
of futility

20,000 people
over the park
today
(I did not go)

Snooker
on a
bank holiday

almost perfectly
itself

A headache
before bed

Ikea
is fucking shit
Thursday 8th May, 2025
After a 100 hours or more of Monster Hunter
I should be sick of it by now
But I’m not
Friday 9th May, 2025
Reordering my bookcases.
Tedious
yet satisfying

My sister’s cats

Still to scared to use my new laptop
In case I ruin it somehow
in case it all goes wrong

in the sunlight
reflected
by the white

Cables
tying themselves in knots
while no-one’s looking

I have tidied my shelves and my desk
but my mind is still a mess
Tuesday 20th May, 2025
Genuinely couldn’t remember how old I was today
which was momentarily disconcerting
Friday 23rd May, 2025
Bought some new trainers. An exciting day
Saturday 24th May, 2025
There was supposed to be thunderstorms
but there wasn’t
thunderstorms

I think I’ve finally played enough Monster Hunter now
After 200 hours
or more
Tuesday 27th May, 2025
Rain
for the first time
in years
Wednesday 28th May, 2025
It was surprisingly cold in the garden. I shivered, but did not come inside

There was a hedgehog in the garden
last night

Notes:
1. Written in May 2025
2. Also I should not that I played another 200 hours of Monster Hunter across the rest of the year
