what up, Prufrock

The theatre whiteboard read: 'Make Lancs great again!'

And the girl smiled at me
again today, wrinkling her nose
her hair tied up in a bun
and bags under her young
eyes, like shadows hanging
from the sun

---

Young guy playing
guitar outside primark
'Halleujah', 'he's good'
I said. 'He's only played
five chords.'

---

There are lots of teenage
girls in Preston on a Saturday
night, wearing ripped jeans
they seem to come in threes
and i feel guilty for noticing

---

I want to believe
but I have the facts
and reasons and inside
information and the polls all say
that I won't win
