Army cadet boy
Smoking your roll up
On the bench
Waiting for your train
As I wait for mine.
All khakied up
As if you've been to
A kiddies fancy dress party
But clearly old enough.
And all that goes through my mind is...
I wonder if you're sixteen?
I think I am turning into
One of those dirty old men
My teachers warned me against.
Dulwich Poet 10th April 2013
(Waiting for a train on Staines Station this evening, I couldn't resist glancing at an attractive older teenager sat on a bench)
