For Jon

~

we never met

four thousand miles

apart, an ocean

between us and

somehow more than 

twenty-odd years 

blinked on by,

words and pictures

were our bond, 

food and fine wine 

a passion shared,

why it stayed the 

test of time who 

knows? 

him: what fancy claret

are you drinking now? 

me: your beloved

‘Arsenal’ played crap 

this week?

Inked-In morphed

to Facebook

friends, and two old

buggers began 

shouting at the moon,

farewell old mate

stroke your many cats

drink fine Latour

rest well!

by the way your team 

are still crap, they lost

to Newcastle today!
