I'm taking this quick opportunity
To write my daily sonnet at lunchtime
I'm sharing a table today with three
Female colleagues who've left at the same time
To go shopping for lunch, or to pass time
Wandering around Manchester, but I can't
Be bothered, even though there's warm sunshine
I'd rather save effort, don't want to hunt
For nothing in particular. Just wrote
A policy brief, though imaginary
We're on a one-day course, meant to refine
Our drafting skills for ministers. We've not
Had such a task since university
Or school exams, even, way back in time...
