It’s lunch hour. On a good day, I would be munching away on a home-made Egg and Avocado and tomato sandwich; or those cheap-but-oh-so-good chicken wings from Quickmart.

Of Expensive Tomatoes, Body Issues and A Case of the Supposed To-Be’s
A case of the Supposed to-be’s - Ze Frank I sit here thinking about all the things I was supposed to be, but I ain’t. Then the thoughts come hard at me; bashing from every direction. I can’t sleep.
