Boys in the Band – A rather cynical little piece, about what girls would do for 'for the boys in the band.' But I've always liked the line about 'you walk in like it every night.' So, walking. A pre – series piece.
I remember you walking. You walked by my side, down a thousand different roads, on a hundred different cases.
You walked like a fighter, a dancer, a lover and I saw you as all of those. I saw you walking in that steady march of yours, my shadow scrabbling to keep up, until you walked down time.
You've stopped walking now. Since autumn, when canes and blue badges became part of our lives. You say it's for my sake.
I want to watch you walk again. To remind me of how it can be.
I want you to walk, Jimmy.
