He carried a two litre bottle of the cheapest cider, Semi-hidden under a tattered coat lapel, So desperately, That It looked as if He was shielding The heart of lover, Too heavy to bear. And he made for the exit Like it was salvation. The cashier just looked on And thought To himself, with pity- How the bad goes With the bad.

Salvation
He carried a two litre bottle of the cheapest cider, Semi-hidden under a tattered coat lapel, So desperately, That It looked as if He was shielding The heart of lover, Too heavy to bear. And he made for the exit Like it was salvation. The cashier just looked on And thought To himself, with pity- How the bad goes With the bad.
