It was like keeping a puppy in your underpants A secret puppy you weren't allowed to show to anyone Not even your best friend or your worst enemy
You wanted to pat him, stroke him, cuddle him All the time you weren't supposed to touch him.
He only slept for five minutes at a time Then he'd suddenly perk up his head In the middle of school medical inspection And always on bus rides.
So you had to climb down from the upper deck All bent double to smuggle the puppy off the bus Without the buxon conductress spotting Your wicked and ticketless stowaway.
Jumping up, wet-nosed, eagerly wagging- He only stopped being a nuisance When you were alone together Pretending to be doing your homework But really gazing at each other Through hot and laxy daydreams.
Of those beautiful schoolgirls on the bus With kittens bouncing in their sweaters.
