POETRY

HAVE YOU EVER?

Have you ever set the video for

"Have I Got News For You"

and got extended snooker instead?

Have you ever forgotten to turn on the electric blanket

and had to crawl, cringing into a freezing cold bed?

 

Have you ever broken down on the M53

and waited for the man from the RAC

when it's cold and it's raining, and there's no one around

and you jump and you twitch to every sound.

 

Did you ever go on a blind date,

on the 7th of October 1976, at 7:30pm

outside the ABC Picture House,

in Argyle Street, Birkenhead,

and never turn up?

Because that was me you left standing there you lousy bastard!
