A Scene for Teenage Lovers

Do YOU depict this scene?

For teenage Lovers

On an October night

Behind the supermarket walls

 

Here there are no rock pools

Left by an ebbing tide

Rather puddles in potholes

Polluted with diesel and oil

 

And what of music?

I hear no string quartet

Just tyres screeching rudely

And in the distance a siren wails

 

No moonlight either?

To fall on ivory skin

Just harsh neon

Man made glow against spray-on tan

 

Yet despite the shortcomings

This scene presents

This October night

There is passion, there is desie, there is love.
