a cold morning on a Salford autumn day
the vapour gathering round lampposts
neon attempts in vain to cut through
roads deserted for miles
dipped headlights order of the day
yet no ones on the road
school patrols in day glo uniform stand lonesome
all football ⚽️ matches in the schoolyard called as score draws
as the fog lingers till home time … can’t see the ball.
