Tristan Sime: Creative and Instructive

A Star? An Eagle? Un Lamento

I saw Her 
& then her name
on the rookie board
and knew where she was from
and that I wanted to know her-
So we talked & flirted
but
nothing happened
And then.... she drove me home; waited to drive me home, 1, 2 3 or more hours after she had finished her shift....
but I lived in a commission flat
and though she was not 'posh'
I felt ashamed
and that she was classier than that
Five
Six
Seven times- more-
I looked across at her
a brief touch
a kiss on the cheek
Nothing more;
never You
Always me.

Salí de su partido para el equivocado, y me arrepentí desde entonces
