Today I am going to pretend to be normal. <br />I am going to behave as I would have before that Friday. <br />I am going to hang up the washing <br />and I am going to weed the garden <br />without my finger on the button <br />of my remote control panic device. <br /> <br />However, <br />it will be <br />the back garden. <br />And the device will be <br />in my pocket. <br />Well, <br />I did tell you <br />that I was only pretending, <br />didn’t I? <br /> <br />(1 January 2001) <br />This is the 3rd in a series of 3 and includes 'That Friday (29 October 2009) ' and 'My October Visitors'<br /><br />Diana van den Berg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/back-to-normality/
