She laughed at me and then told
everyone at primary school.
I said she was lying and it
was her dad who had the pornos

because her dad is quite nice,
whereas my dad is the maddest
bastard you will ever meet.
Oi!
Yeah?
Where's your mother?
Hospital.
I want to kill him.
HE RETCHES
Every morning, he coughs
his snot in the sink,
and I want to stab him in the back,
just take a knife and hack at him.
You shouldn't have done that.
She wasn't very well.
Get some chips.
