He’s so cool
with his expensively clean,
over-sized silver wristwatch
and Peachy Keen flavoured
Monster energy drink.

He’s so cool,
perfectly postured
with precisely positioned messy hair,
swearing between Hula Hoop bites.

He’s so cool
with his feet up on the train seats.

He’s so cool
with wireless headphones in his ears,
telling his cousin how
he’s “slaying half term”.
