Folklore Tale – Written Sunday 23rd October 1994 (Aged 19)

Folklore Tale

you cannot fool them
they know what to say
and they know,
what to do
you cannot fool them
it is up to you
take it or leave it
you get what you pay for
you cannot fool them
they have all lived before
and they have all,
travelled again
but now, they are getting old
and their lives are becoming folklore
a fireside story that must be told




James Garratt – Sunday 23rd October 1994
