I wrote a poem about a teddy boy when I was fifteen. Wanna see it?
TEDDY BOY UNDER THE STARS
A teddy boy roaming the civic common
Cap in hand, a pound to the dozen
Waiting for news of his ailing pet rabbit
Resentful of the yob who broke in to stab it
Smoking and drinking to relieve his tension
Running around naked (which for now we won't mention)
