Crossed 250 miles of ground
Drove to Teesport, Teesside, near Middlesbrough
For a tax meeting. Luckily I found
The building easily, by asking a
Copper at the port entrance! Was knackered
But still I talked ten to the dozen, and
Then drove myself back home to Manchester
(Almost asleep at the wheel). The demands
Of my life didn’t stop there, though; had planned
To attend a poetry read-around
In Hulme, well-known arty part of inner
City Manchester, UK, World. So stand
Up and say what you know about; I found
That if you do that, then they’ll lend an ear
Wed 14 July
