THE LOVERS
(I watched this couple in a cliff-top restaurant overlooking the sea near Bournemouth a couple of years ago)
She laughs
Enthusiastically
And a second or two
Too long;
She wears a top by Versace
And has Raybans on her head;
The man is older
And looks like money,
Wants to look like money;
She looks at him
Over her empty latte
Always at him;
He looks at the rest of us.
They're in love
She with his money
He with himself.

Thanks Po and Brian. Eternalised in that moment in words.
And thanks for the “Like”, Tom.
