Poems
May 2021
.steam roller.
have meaning to write of it
since she told me that it moves
at four miles an hour
rumbling along
takes sixteen hours from here to shrewsbury
leaving early all standing up
and concentration
he says they donβt grumble if stuck behind a while
just take photographs
we hear it going on itβs way
to some event those days
these days locked down like the rest of us
used to hear it as a child come down the hill so ran to the gate to watch
or at road works the tar still hot and steamy
the smell being flattened by the thing
the chest beating with excitement
