I visited the toilets at Stevenage railway station on the morning of
[checks] the Electric Woodlands festival
I had my own perfectly normal agenda
and you can fuck right off if you're thinking it
was rude or illegal. Anyway the point is, in the next cubicle
I heard a young fellow say to his friend -
"Mate I can't feel my legs, they've gone all numb I can't get up"
"You're so fucked. What do you think it is"
"I think it's all that ketamine I took this morning"
"Right yeah, that'll do it. You're so fucked"
"I think I'll be all right if you can sort me though yeah"
"The coke's for later though yeah"
"Yeah but I can't stand up right now"
What a day that was
I broke my steps record
* * * * *
I had one of those early morning phone calls
and was ready to leave the house
when she appeared at the door, her eyes
a million black holes
"Am I home now, is it you?
"You're home. Yes it's me. You don't look great"
"I think it's all that ketamine I took last night"
"Last night was a long time ago, it's 6am now"
"Yes yes. But you never need to worry about me"
"You can take care of yourself"
"I can take care of yourself. Don't know how I got back"
"Right, well I've got to go home now"
"So soon, so early. What happened"
What a day that was
I don't know how to end this one
