Forgotten Saturdays – January 2019

Forgotten Saturdays

people spot my
childhood
‘from a mile off’
it hangs around me
like a bad cough
i can wheeze
and sneeze
but it never leaves
they see,
the breakdown van
but,
never really understand
they can see
the forgotten Saturday’s
forgotten by dad
i am the product of a sad story
by my mum and dad
