Where were you?

If you can remember the sixties you weren’t there – Robin Williams

Apparently
Sexual intercourse began
In nineteen sixty-three
- much too early for me.

But,

was this when
every life became
‘a brilliant breaking of the bank,
A quite unlosable game’?

I don’t know.

At boarding schools
‘til nineteen seventy-six
more games were lost than won
- fewer bouquets than bricks.
