Written on Sheffield station on the way to the Harold Massingham launch in Mexborough on 4th December 2021
Sheffield Station
There is beauty in this greyness
but this faded edifice lost its charm
as decades rolled - empty
carriages dragged by a growling diesel.
Rain falls from the roof edge;
masked faces conceal joy and pain,
the hope and despair of winter grained
in the hollows of their eyes.
