Holiday Park Incident


from the ABC set 2008

Some big arsed blonde from Birmingham
is dancing. She came a long way
to this seaside town for nothing.

The comic says, 'Put a saddle
on that and ride it,' as she staggers
to a drunken one night stand.

There is beauty in her eyes, when
they are focused and I hate
to hear her made the butt of a joke.

I stand here at the bar, with my
Guinness Extra Cold and I ought
to do more than think about sex.

But it is easy to step back
and allow these thing to happen
to strangers, though I regret now.

Yes, I could take hold of her hands
and join her on the dance floor,
to act out dreams of self as saviour.

Very good. I thought this was both sad and very funny.
