IN this historic building,
Where you live with your voice,
And iconic looks,
With thanks to sponsors,
And happy-ever-afters,
Did you buy the tote bag of the film?

Hear me shout!
Miming bonfires,
And fake meat towers,
Dripping in vegan cheese

Artistic in leather and fingers,
And the one who does the cleaning,
With a Blue thing on a stick

Shapes and sizes,
Bought the t-shirt,
Got the poster

BIRTHDAY BOY:

and jacket looking thirty years younger sat at the table in a blue
satin sash that said birthday boy reaching a frail hand hand out
to me from his wheelchair he beamed and tried to say my name

Underpass attraction,

That photograph of you,
In a pop magazine,
Outside a castle,

Slow,
Parks up,
Sweet and salty,
