Or times in the late eighties long ago
A dreamlike sequence, different rooms and then
Long fun conversations that come and go
Brain stimulated, changed by things we know
Can affect thought, deed, personality
I outlasted Helen and Paul, although
They’re both a good few years younger than me
Helen stayed up late, did well, certainly
I’ve seen her flake out earlier, but it’s been
Twelve hours in her company. She got so
Wound up arranging the delivery
Or collection by taxi in the end
Met Paul in the Boar’s Head. Leigh evenings flow
Fri 30 July
