Wilderspool Causeway

old police station
hollyhocks lean through the railings

double rainbow –
a childminder wonders
when it will end

space hopping
Canadian professor
wrong to ask

cough remedy
in the river current
or just the box

cabins near Feltham
daffodils arraigned –
what’s the plan

summer fair
bouncy castle
by the cemetery

two month old
daily sudoku –
a woman stares

old Mortlake
war graves
endless rubble

writing ‘graves’
my pen wobbles
with the train

tower blocks
tell us thirteen minutes
to somewhere else

shunter’s yard
trains lined up
going nowhere fast

mind the gap
between the phone
and your nodding head

where are you going –
your spaniel will never know
West Croydon

financial instruments
given equal billing
to Wandsworth Common

air conditioned train –
he lost his social battery

Wimbledon’s plateau –
the drooping life
of delphiniums

Sutton station –
I’ll be there
in John’s grey jag

Mitcham Eastfields
cameras for your safety –
who wears a crown?

purple flowers
by a well –
one up
one down

Mitcham golf club
can you survive the cut
cabbage-white sands
