Own Up – Written February 2003 (Aged 28)

Own Up

own up
if you are the one –
with the answer –
to life’s great sum

own up
if you are turning right
but feeling wrong
is anybody around
to work out the sum
the parts lie on the floor
let’s leave quietly
through the unmade door

own up
if you are the one –
with the money –
that buys the answer




James Garratt – February 2003
