Like a Mick Jagger
I got a problem, it’s with my son.

They’re going through so many emotions at that phase.

instead, it tickles a nerve!

the outlined echoes of last night,
two star-crossed microphone lovers,
drawn from opposite ends of town,
yesterday’s pub entertainers,
way on down at the Old Three Crowns,
they met singing Gloria...
