I couldn’t get served
the barmaid was at the other end
of the bar playing on her pink netbook
i coughed
and she came
so to speak
and i had an ale
turned out i knew her ma
and her ma ma
later she married
and sold me
the pink netbook
for £50
it was shiny
i had to clean it
still have the computer
broken
always was
computers reflect
their owners
