ITV NURSE

short nurse with short hair
talks in short words
with long spaces between sort phrases
to
EMPHASISE
the importance
and to leave space for gasps

smoking by the lane she details her evening routine to anyone

she puts on itv 
she says
soon as she gets in
and leaves it on all night
because
she says
she knows theyll be no dog shows on to set her dogs off

theatre orderly, 60 looks 50, erupts in peals of laughter

i want to say
what about the ad breaks?  what about all the ads for dog food?
basically 
i want to say
there will be dogs 

but i dont because i dont really like her
and my mind
is bursting
with much higher things like where the storm drains go
