Brief Encounter

by Paganini Jones

We're using wine gums and bread
as bait, he said.
See? As he held up the hook.
We havn't caught nothin' though.

We used to use tin foil
to catch mackeral,
I said. I never caught anything either
(but my brother did,
only I didn't say)

I'm doing proper fishin'
in a bit, he said.
We're going to Blackpool.
(I never did see the sea at Blackpool
I didn't say.) I said,
there's crabs in Blackpool

Wow! He grinned.
