Halloween in the pub,
some bloke just kicked
a black and white ball
through an elongated white
spiderweb of a net; Man
United vs Liverpool FC,
I think? I’m just a mere
Mortal, I well-traveled Yank;
but I have an edge on this
drunken lot, I know some of the slang,
it’s dimly lit
and sparsely populated in
here, isn’t it too chilly out
side for this to be going on?
The lady must be 50; but she
looks much older, fishnet stockings
and a leather jacket in this day in age?
Some bloke kicks a black and white
ball through an elongated spiderwebbed
net; the drunken few, ask
"When does karaoke start?"
