Oxford, December 1980


Picture by Rose Davies


Oxford, December 1980

They say everyone knows

Where they were

When they heard JFK had been shot.



I don't remember

Where I was on 22 November

1963

Because I was only 6 months old.



But I know where I was

When Elvis Presley died

On 16 August 1977.

At my Auntie Clarice's

in Lydney.



And on 8 December 1980

In Oxford

Waiting to be interviewed

When John Lennon
Was assassinated.
