Bedyet
	
It’s not time to go to Bedyet, I’ve frequently been told,
By people who won’t travel, be they four or nine years old.

This is so like me
To fall into a deep dark hole
Without a way to dig myself out
I repeat this terrible mistake every time
Stumble down the same blind path
Littered with the entrails of slaughtered longings

Already I have...

I don't like snakes or spiders,
weak tea or fizzy ciders.
Seats on buses that are slightly damp,
TV presenters who are far too camp.
