Freddys Time (17:24)
Freddy was thrown to the lions.
Well, not really.
What actually happend was,
Freddy the teddy (real name, real ted)
was thrown
by his little owner (name not rememberd)
on to the train lines.
Nothing could be done,
teddys time was up.
There was no stoping
the 17:24 to Stansted airport.
It would not be stoped for a teddy.
(What kinda world do I live in?)
The boy was upset.
I was wierdly relieved.
(Did not want to be witness to
a little serial killers first truely
happy day.)
In 5 minutes,the train of teddy doom
would do and end to
poor Freddy.
They calmed the boy down,
quite quickly.(too quickly?)
They all said their goodbyes.
(they had a freekin funeral on platform 4)
Mum, Dad, boy and even the platform guard.
(I didn't feel i'd got to
know Freddy enough)
5 mins from start to finish.
I've picked my nose for longer.
But still
really moving.
As was the 17:24 to Stansted airport, WHOOSH!!
Before the noise of the
train receeded'
I could hear mum and dad say
"You can have a new Freddy tomorrow"
"A better Freddy?"
"Yes a much better Freddy)
Thats the kinda world I live in.
