Hi listerines, Well, there were several contenders but in view of a recent list thread they were all seen off by this outsider, by "popular rock poet" of the 80s Steve Turner. Where is he now? Anyway, it's relevant if not technically brilliant (and I kind of relate to the last 4 lines). Sorry it's not one of mine Adrian but I thought it would be just a little egotistical. Oh, and I bequeath the duty to the Little Blond One, Mark Casarotto, for next week. To Those I Will Never Meet She sits over there on the bus on the train on the tube. She makes reading the Standard a difficult task. She is aware that I am reading between the lines and far beyond the margins. She adjusts herself for better presentation. I gain an interest in No Smoking signs and obscure shadows in the window. Obstructing the doors causes delay and can be dangerous. A station foreman can earn up to £X.40 -more with overtime. She notices my noticing. I give her profile left -a good one. My attitude - disinterested, harder to catch than mostmen. Do you? How far have? What is your? Have you ...ever wished introductions weren't needed? Our gazes meet like billiard balls...that fall into opposite pockets. The best jobs are always to be found in the Evening News. Wimbledon got off to a good start. A girl on the tube on the train on the bus got off at Golders Green. She left me wondering, whether I left her wondering, a poem like this, about me. Steve Turner Hope you liked it.
