PONTEFRACT CAKES
She steams off cools down
Packs up at the packet house
It’s autumn in Maine
Don’t slip on the leaves
Skewiffology she says
If they block the drain…
Standing on her head
Which way do the tram tracks run
Sideways or straight plane
She sat through August
Trying to ignore the pain
With Pontefract Cakes
Liquorice not liquor
Square potato tortilla
From The Spanish Main
Unfortunately
Nobody knows what she’s got
She waits in the rain
They worship their gods
Raising hands praising TV
Legs like a crane
Chillies for breakfast
Stationary as a toy train
She’s too hot to hoot
