Love the allusion to Desert Island Discs with the '...bible and complete works os Shakespeare'. It just adds to the picture of being alone, and had me questioning alone or loneliness?

McVitie’s crumbs is such a great detail.

Where would we be without Travelodges and the voices eh? Probably not on here replying to this prompt anyway! Great poem Mike. Whoever rejected it was wrong mate 👏👏👏

Great piece. Especially loved the third stanza.

Good stuff, Mike. Patrick McGuinness has a fabulous Travelodge poem.

I didn't know of Travelodges before today! I've seen a few mentions. I like the repetition of the voices and the question of whether they are real or not.

I think there's a few of us out here who get what you're saying Mike!!👍👌
