Francoise

~

1965 not

fourteen years old 

virgin hormones 

freshly pressed 

music madness 

O level French  

and there you were,

smooth chocolate 

melted butter voice,

an ache somewhere

I’d never felt before

could it be love

this hurt, this pain

fourteen years old

a poster on the wall

and that dress!

my first wet dream

and so it began

a leap, a fall

yeah! yeah!

1965
