What's on your mind Facebook?
find anything?

The girl at school led me behind the bike shed,
I thought to look at her bike
if I'd have known then what I know now
I'd have pressed 'like'

That was sometime in the last century but memory mentions me
now and again.

Ps
I'm on a train which is going quite fast
heading no doubt to the dim and distant,
just passed
Bethnal Green.

The city rears up like a tiger on heat
I get to my feet and scarper.
