Discretion Is The Polite Word

All That Swinging Sixties. It Didn’t Do Anyone Any Good, Did It? Easy Sex And The Pill. Marriages Were Ruined. I Never Did Approve. I Never Really Enjoyed The Sex.

However I Dress It Up, I Was A Spy And I Am Not Proud Of It.

The Fathers, If They Got Me Alone, Would Try To Kiss And Fondle Me. I Hated It.

My Mother Used To Go Out On Her Own, And I Used To Have To Keep A Look Out For My Stepfather Coming Home.

One Way Of Reading My Life Is That I Have Been In Constant Search For A Father.
