Maybe it was just chance or a well-played plan
but like a fairy tale the woman
became acquainted with the much older man
making him spill his coffee
with that virtuous flicker of long eyelashes
that upon his jacket splashes!
A slight blush as it was he who apologised
their eyes met and he was smitten
caught was it chemistry or a hidden agenda
to him it was magical luck
had recently got divorced that still really hurt
how good it felt to once again flirt!
Blinded by a beautiful woman chatted happily
both becoming touchy feely
drunk more than he usually did that evening
had verbal diarrhea was happy
remembered walking out with this female
from there it was a memory fail!
With a jolt awoke in a bed with white sheets
alone his clothes strewn around
a trail of water droplets led to the bathroom
with a throbbing headache
his desperation to vomit and pee was intense
as none of this did make any sense!
Staggering through the open door at the sink
the trail ended on the steamy mirror
a word Sucker written saw his own pasty face
then a dark figure from behind
hit him over the head again lost consciousness
last thought his future ominous!
Aroused with a slap and loud shouting in his ear
handcuffed to a bare dirty table
two men sat staring from across the small room
demanding to know where she was
where had he hidden the body of their comrade
confused at the question so afraid!
His thoughts scrambled by drugs drink and brutality
engulfed in a bizarre situation
here with no answers help or any means of escape
vague flashes of a bar and a girl
as the pain in his head began to get more intense
nothing to him made any sense!
After endless questions the interrogation stopped
dragged and thrown into a cell
he had been a banker who had let his guard down
and given them pass codes
while he had been detained had ransacked his flat
of no more use he was hit with a bat!
A week later his remains were pulled out of the river
back in the same up market bar
a young woman approached the middle-aged man
he was an executive of a large firm
how his ego was raised as she smiled and spoke
then gently his hand she did stroke!
