Secret Lives

Secret Lives by Siân Hughes Prizewinner The TLS Poems on the Underground Poetry Competition ' Sometimes when your dressing gown unhooks and slides out under the garden door, with three aces up his sleeve. He flies in the face of next door's dog, and backflips down the middle of the street, opening himself and humming. Something in pink nylon flutters at him from a bedroom window. He twirls his cord to beckon her outside. They're heading for a club they know where the dress code is relaxed midweek and the music is strictly soul. '
