the old hiway to s'end
is
a
clot
of drivethrus now
the
blacktop frozen
into
ripples like a lowtide beach
pubs are boarded up
in
armour of silver steel
and
all the roadside bungalows
shed their paint like scabs
the old hiway to s'end
hunches
its subway shoulders
weighed down by newbuild towers
under
skyroads treading heavy in lowcloud
so
doomlike
and
dull strong grey
