Glen and the News

In the office, there was the usual chat developing. Mortgages, the country going to the dogs and ways to make more money are the regular topics.
I find these conversations hard to be around as they are a flow of negativity coming from those who are frustrated and looking to blame someone. They start angry and end angry with no hope of resolution at any point.
I decided to move on out into the corridor to see what I could encounter there. I came across Glenn. He was looking for someone to make him some tea and was pleased to know that I could facilitate that.
He had watched the news that day and found out that a particular royal was unwell in hospital. This matter preoccupied him with suspicion.
'He's gone in there to change his identity with the FBI. The queen has never been seen pregnant. Just look at his eyes and the fishes will come'.
The thing with delusions is that it seems we keep the majority of them to ourselves. There are times though when an occasional one may slip out and be voiced. Exposure. Whether it be to yourself or others around you. Glen was impatient then to get his tea and move on.
I gave Glen his tea and went to sit down on one of the chairs with my toast.
'You shouldn't eat that, it will make your hair curly. Can I have a light?'
