Set the alarm for 7 hours 15
But woke up an hour early, washed and packed
Got the train to Victoria and had been
Waiting a long time for the coach, I clapped
An eye on it, a double decker, hopped
Upstairs with my bags full of books and gear
For maybe half an hour at most I slept
Weary from several late nights. It appeared
Promising for tonight, my routine clear
The running order sorted, gags pristine
In my mind, spiced up with banter, perhaps
The night approached, Sandbar (student quarter)
I did my set, four minutes, memory keen
But the audience was dull, the night went flat
Mon 9 April
