L90

16 Nov

There are men in cowboy hats and walking sticks

With untidy grey hair tuffs of missed shaving bits.

School girls thumbing mobile phones

Short skirts and pleasant skin tones.

Mothers with toddlers clinging to hands.

Breaking away running, ignoring commands.

Are they Uni students or under employed,

Those variety of tidy and scruffy 20’s something girls and boys?

Ladies in their twin sets, all cardigan and hair,

Handbags and shoes and matching stare.

Suit and tie and hurried look

The businessman speedily reads his book.

The bus rocks like a dinghy bobbing on a rough sea

The motor screaming at the people on the L90.
