Piccadilly Plaza, Manchester.
A response by inky
Among the summer fountains
and stalls for this and that
something from Westminster
landed on ground – Flat
It took local wildlife by surprise
and pigeons they did up and rise
to see this tower – now lying adrift
on their spot they were a little miffed
The fountains spurted in their shock
while seagulls in their turn – did mock
“We thought we didn’t have the power
and now we have to put up with this tower?”
The clock – itself – was quiet that day
as the visiting public made their way
giving the tower some funny looks
as the tower was covered in paperback books
