Listened: Meeting Point by Louis MacNeice – A Friend to Imtiaz Dharker.
I was sitting at a table with a boy I just met and he casually said: ‘Time was away and somewhere else. The waiter did not come, the clock forgot them.’ And it just stopped me dead because I wasn’t especially interested in this boy, but for a few seconds I fell in love with him because he said those lines.
Poems as Friends is a lovely idea.
