I could have 
had a career in the media. I could be 
hanging out with Hannah Woods, 
talking about eyebrows, about
the time Twitter went mad for hers,
the time when Paxman lifted his
because I’d spotted Mahler’s third
from only one note. I could have 
Roger Tilling’s number. There would be
YouTube clips of him saying 
Leeds, Williams! as I jump in for
the picture starter. We take the lead 
against Trinity College Cambridge, and 
from there we’re just buzzing, buzzing,
          never 
                      looking 
                                      back.
