Man confused by a chicken sitting on a table with coffee and breakfast food

A Chicken And Egg Conundrum


I honestly can’t recall
If I started drinking coffee
To combat the resultant fatigue
Of insomnia

Or if the fatigue is born of
An insomnia
That is itself a symptom
Of excessive caffeine consumption

But on a day when I have
An omelette for breakfast
And a Nandos for lunch
There is at least one question
I can answer with certainty

There are so few definitive answers to the questions which perplex us, that if you can keep your eggs and chickens in order, that is something to celebrate 🙂
