Manners


do you remember when we were kids

we walked to Rowney Green

and bought a packet of crisps each

and a bottle of pop between us.

You walked backwards up the hill

eating Walkers Sweet and Sour,

spitting out the sour ones

onto the hot, dry road.


The women behind you asked you why

and you said you didn't like them

and I was so embarrassed by you

I never went there again.
