Harry's staring at his chickenHe's trying hard to listen without hatingBut everything David saysSeems to make him like him lessHis little brother Pete is waitingFor the appropriate place to say'Oh right, yeah'And make an interested faceMiriam feels distantShe knows her sons are trying hardBut trying hardJust increases the frictionIt's never been tense like thisHarry looks around at his mother's new kitchenAnd can't help but think of his dadAlone in that house where they all used to livePutting his half pint of semi-skimmedBack into the fridgeDadWith his silent waysAnd his smiling faceNo romance, just basicStraight forwards, no frills, no fussBut at least he was a man you could trustNot like this guy, this DavidFace like a pill head at the end of a raveStaring at my mum like he wants to be savedHarry feels weak today, he can't take itAnd he doesn't know it but he's glaringThinking of BeckyAnd why he insisted on sharingSo much with a strangerHe feels a faint sense of dangerAshamed that he'd made aFool of himself, he's an idiotSees it in his mind's eye, insidiousHim, spilling out his guts like a suicidal shogunLooking for deliveranceDithering fool feeling silly and hopelessly brokenBlithering on while she was smokingWhat was he thinking?Heart opening up like it was blinkingBecky. He feels her name, it's heavyDon't forget meSnap back to the roomHe flinches at the imageMiriam is finishing her wineAnd Pete is asking for the spinach'Er, how's work, Harry?'David's features are tipped towards him'Fine, thanks,' Harry looks up, 'exhausting.''Yes,' David smiles, 'but hard work is always rewarding.'Even David's enthusiasm is boring'How long have you worked there?' he asksAnd Harry thinks of all them years he's spentScheming and shotting'Little while, now. To be honest, I've forgotten.''Oh yes, well time does fly in the work place,'David smiles, noddingAll he ever wanted to be was good enoughAll he ever wanted to say was the right thingBut as long as you live for the way you're perceivedYou will never create, only bite thingsAll he ever wanted to do was the done thingAll he ever wanted to make was the gradeBut as long as you live for other people's opinionsYou'll never be more than afraid
