climbing into a car with a stranger (or not)
I wasn’t chasing adventure or fun
(didn’t expect to find a gold-star tucked in my knickers
for a messy foot-down *******)
I wasn’t after acceptance
or love
I wasn’t seeking thrills as I closed the door
knowing he’d had too much drink
or a couple of pills
or both
I was looking for a way out
such a cliche
trying to switch on
