Coffee and Beryl Bainbridge ...



It was time for coffee and Beryl Bainbridge - 

Each sip like one of her wasp sting sentences -

Whilst I drink one bitter cup, Bunny burns a desperate letter - 

O'Hara says George, salt of the earth -

Dawn sobs in her dressing room - 

Stella nips out for cigarettes - 

She's strange and sexy in her munitions girl's

 overalls -

I know the words she says - 

But usually nobody likes the sound of them -
