Tube - Have a Night Out

(So I find that I'm getting ideas whilst sitting on the Central line on my way to wherever I'm going, and the trains are smothered with ads for the latest this or that, so I use some of them as inspiration. This short, cheeky and slightly simplistic poem comes from an AMEX ad.)

Have a Night Out

Have a night out.
The lipstick,
the pouting,
the champagne,
those trout things,
the endless discussion,
the headaches,
concussion.
The hot date,
the first round,
the last train,
the underground,
the night bus,
the lip gloss,
the phonecall,
the lost keys,
the kerb-fall,
the knees,
and the crying,
and the crying,
and the weeping.
