I met this friend of mine
When I was in class ten
One day, we skipped classed to see a film
We reached the cinema hall, for the matinee show
All was well until five
Then arose in me, an uneasy calm
Film was not yet over, and I wanted to go home
My friend, a veteran filmgoer, was not amused
But understood, the predicament of a novice filmgoer
We left the film in-between, and
That was the beginning of a long friendship.
