yes i did.



each spring

before easter came

she bought me a new cotton dress in m&s.



st margaret.



a bigger size

taken up, tucked in with

room for growth.



the next year it was second best for school

taken down , let out

and fading in the summer holidays.



the jackets were my brothers.

A song for this:
bad idea! by girl in red [E]

Clutching at thin straws of sanity
Swirling in a sea of madness
I dog paddle with all my might
Towards a shore that seems too far
To offer any hope of safe arrival
         ljm

Let me live
Let me smile
Oh and Cry just a while
As the sun sets
And warmth fades away

Let me run
Let me swim
In emotions, some Grim
As the child
Embraces the day

Let me fade
Let me fall
At the end of it all
Knowing love
Every step of the way

Frosties aren't Frosties anymore
They've changed their tack
The sneaky ******
They are now Shreddies
(The frosted one)
Sounds like AI Tolkien
The end's begun
Here I was trying to be healthy
A victim of marketing stealthy
Bracketed smallprint
Unbecoming
I still put extra sugar on em.

I open up my idle knife—
that dagger look-alike—
and fold it back
and pass the time.
