shower time
but there's something missing
no water

I was sixteen when I attended my first concert;
Thin Lizzy at Stafford Park
paid for by the bloke
who took Sue and I dog training.
He hadn't expected me
and thought he was on a date
but Mum had just died
and Sue wanted to lift my spirits.
To be fair, he thought it was a date
and she wanted me to dissuade him
from any 'funny business'
I wish I could remember his name
but he had a mini with an 8-track;
played the Beatles over and over
and I, too, wanted to be a paperback writer.
