Expectations…

Got invited tae this party -
small town - I'll no say where -
but it wiz a richt weird affair.

Bloke's a nutter! a mate had said,
Fuckin lost it athegither! said anither,
but his patter can be great.

Which was why I went. That
and the fact that Jenny wiz
going to be there. Surely.

Anyway. She didnae appear.
Jist as well - aboot half twelve the host
de-breeks himsel and shags the dog

richt infront o abody. Didnae seem
tae think it wid offend. Within
two weeks he's wiz hounded outta town.

I mean, what did he expect?
