Lizbeth dreams
of Benny
having him
in her bed
just for kicks
her parents
down the stairs
in the lounge
unaware
she's upstairs
with Benny
having ***
in her bed
the first time
at long last
so she dreams
inside her
13 year
old young head
Benny dreams
of Spitfires
in dogfights
or finding
in hedgerows
a blackbird's
nest and eggs
all untouched
or holding
in his palms
a Peacock
butterfly
wings unspoilt
settled there
he dreams not
of Lizbeth
or of ***
anywhere
not in church
or her bed
and knows not
what's inside
his 13
year old head.
