Nice imagery and good straight talk of comversation. It read smooth enough. Too bad i have missed a lot of it. But from what you wrote here, I really like it. Good luck.
Hugs, Nicole

This story is far too long to be presented as a poem of any kind. I hope you can change the category to fiction, or whatever.

This is miles too long for a thorough read and constructive review.

It also has no poetic devices to classify it as 'poetry', and in my quick browse, it seems like a story written in prose.

Free verse should have certain poetic elements, IMHO, like occasional rhyme, alliteration, metaphors, vivid imagery, and perhaps a little dramatic repetition.

Best wishes, Ray

Very creative and interesting. I laughed out loud at this line

"Well of course I'm sure. Why else would I call you Pilot?"

Wonderful use of dialogue and this easily kept my interest.

Hmm, it seems a nice holiday is about to go all wrong for our friends in England.You did well to create a couple of detestable creeps.

Did you mean Long John Silver or was it a play on words?

Barbed wire had scared<(scarred) his cheek as a child just below his left eye

A night of going drag proved once again to be a frustrating evening as not once was he asked to dance or let alone, not one future bit of rough offered to lit(light) his cigar.

Other wise(otherwise) you can just take your sorry ass back to your little flat and prance about."
