    I am eating lunch

    I am not fighting cancer.
    I am eating my lunch.
    And then I am going for
    a walk in the overcast
    bright of the day.
    And then I will go back
    to the office and write
    some articles. I might
    have a snack and
    listen to some music.
    There is no fighting here.
