Eccles to Manchester, 5th September 2017
Manchester – here is a public announcement
Even the local birds
Think their dinner is taking a liberty , as it
Rides along the tracks without a pass, for nothing
On system lines from Salford to Ashton, and Bury to Altrincham
Like old Mancunian cotton weavers, they leave
Interesting little webs like they’re decorating the tram
Note the way though – they stay still on their threads when spotted
Kings of the carriage, till the arrival of a cleaner.
The Inkwell
