TRAINING EXERCISE.

ON A TRAINING EXERCISE

I am participating
in a rest centre
training exercise
tomorrow.

I’ve been told
to make a nuisance
of myself
when it's

our turn
to be the evacuees,
which requires
a small amount

of acting
on my part.
I think
my character

should be Australian,
of Mediterranean
descent
with just

a hint
of tourettes.
