Raging

Gordon Ramsay’s youngest child Matilda
is staging a screaming fit in the back garden.

The grand exponent of the F-word holds her
tight, tries to calm her, placate her.

No good. As he hugs her, her neck heats
up.
She cranks her volume to wailing and growling and

pours her tantrum into his ear
like bubbling hot bechemel sauce
over-seasoned with tears.
