Joaquim Blue/Tennis Bitch


Every Tuesday I meet my friend Tennis Bitch
For a game of chess in the Higher Park
She has won twenty-eight consecutive games
Against my poor serve although my backhand is strong
To anyone passing by we must look very odd
As she is very short and I am very tall
Tennis Bitch is obviously not her real name
As Joaquim Blue is not my birth name
But neither of us can remember our real names
Which in a way is a little comforting
