Ten Years After
Subsequent to
Below in rank
Lining-up, one
right after another;
Great expectations
Can never manage
to be optimistic;
Like Jill, come
tumbling down, but
Jack was the real
fall guy - never did
live happily ever
after, as-in life,
that's what you'll
usually discover;
Subsequent to
Not the same,
but almost close;
It's the Peterbilt
Principle - run over
by another truck;
Looking for an
apology? 'Oh,
didn't you know -
they'll come, but
not today, but rather
Ten Years After.'
