She Didn’t Have A Car

She came from afar. She didn’t have a car, just a bike, but it

seemed like a long way to hike. Why didn’t she get a plane?

Did she know that she was meeting someone so vain? And

Carly Simon wasn’t even mentioned. Anyway, I was busy. I’d

just got two weeks in detention. It was worse than getting 200

lines. By the time the detention had finished, I was walking

home in the dark and I wasn’t doing that for a lark. Anyway, I

didn’t see her again; maybe her bike got a puncture; either

that or she couldn’t find her way, but trust me when I say –

that certainly made my day!
