A sunny day. I donned my shorts and T-
Shirt, and sat down to watch the Sunday shows
Like Andrew Marr, Sunday Live, and Country
Tracks (today, the Lancashire coast); saw those
Sculptures on Crosby Beach, showing their toes
And groins and whatnot, some with barnacles
All looking to sea. Further up the coast
They showed, inevitably, brash Blackpool’s
Illuminations, and those trams, their wheels
Impressively multi-coloured; then the
Midland Hotel, Morecambe, which once more glows
Bright white, well now and then when sunlight falls
Over the no man’s land of the bay. We
Really should visit these places, you know
