I want

I want Summer and the joy and positivity that it brings, to stroll through leafy glades with the time and the inclination to linger in dappled sunlight. I want to sit besides the lake wearing an open shirt with my slacks to feel the warmth reflected from the bright blue water.

I want to take my week vacation, not to fly off to some wondrous place but to revel in the freedom of a day with no diary entries giving me the time to see and do the things I enjoy doing.

I want to go to bed late and just loll there with a good book without the distraction of having to get up for appointments next morning.

I want to take my time over my meals without wolfing down my plate of food with one eye on a ticking clock.

I want to be free from the constraints of work so I can start to write in ernest about the ideas that haunt me, and to write freely and openly to spill out my emotions and feelings with time to rewrite and amend.

I want freedom from invasive advertising that cleverly targets the sweet spot of unsuspecting people and triggers them into making purchases of crap they don't need.

I want my free time to be exactly that and not a brief cup of tea and a biscuit sat in some dank staff room with people who don't understand what I'm saying because they don't speak English.

I want my neighbours to have the common decency not to scream and harangue each other when I'm trying to sleep during the day.

I want an end to huge mega amp speakers that blast out puerile pap at 2100 watts just because some bog eyed bow legged pox infested kid thinks he's cool.

I want a iPhone with a battery capacity capable of taking me past five fucking minutes on a full charge.

Yes. Just give me these things and I'll love you forever.
