the heat of the weekend passes
demanding sparrows

we got a colour TV
after mum died,
compensation, I suppose,
though we'd rather have had her.
I always thought seventies films
to be in black and white
only recently disabused of the notion
when rewatching half-remembered titles.
Odd that I remember the horror
wrapped up in 'O Lucky Man'
and not the long segments
of soft porn debarcles.
Those acres of flesh
deleted from memory.
