The prescription

Tell you what, Granny
(says Ruby)
What say I write you
a prescription
for some medicine
to stop you forgetting
your friend
is dead.

You must add
your friend's name:
"Pat."

I didn't have someone

I didn't have someone
to play with today
(says Ruby).

But I was a bit happy
because
I didn't have to

go in and out
in and out
out and in.

Nothing left to learn

I can't remember what I learned today
(says Ruby).
I've got nothing left to learn.

I haven't learned anything
from pieces of paper,
just from aeroplanes.
