CINEMA DATE 1969.
Sophia leans over
the fresh made bed
of old Tom
and says to me
film on at cinema
(she's Polish
and her
English's broken)
is there now
I reply
folding neat
the old boy's clothes
it good film
I put away the clothes
in the top drawer
of the chest of drawers
you take me?
why would I do that?
it good film
after we go back
to my home for coffee
you want me
to meet your parents?
no they out
at some ex army thing
my Tatus was in War
over here
she says
I stare out the window
of Tom's room
not sure
I can make it
I say
maybe we could
be having **** after?
she suggests
the sky is off grey
the clouds are heavy
the grass below
is bright green
don't need ***
I reply
just a film
I look at her
standing there
blonde hair tied
in a ponytail
eyes bright
as new stars
you go?
she asks
dare I say no?
I muse thinking
of the times
she's nearly
seduced me
on the beds
in this old folks home
me a nurse
she a cleaner
a seductive one
at that
sure
I say
looking away
making sure
all the jobs are done
in Tom's room
so I can leave
she smiles
it be good have
coffee after
I nod
and down the hall outside
there's an old boy's
rattly laughter.
A DATE BETWEEN A YOUNG MAN AND A POLISH GIRL IN 1969.
