@Jaci - well I saw something like this happening at the airport. I don’t know who the guy was going to call with his mobile, maybe he just called his office or his mother - but anyway - that was the inspiration for this poem.
Thinking about it it’s not that often I write about the dark side of love.

OK Paul, especially for you, a rewrite of the last verse:
“He finds his phone
begins to text
Is it Ann or Jane
he’s seeing next?”
Better? Makes him a bigger bastard for sure :-)
