this bus stop smells  (  sllems pots sub siht  )

…

this bus stop smells

of pickled eggs


& whitsun eves

on ganymede


the morning yawns

of george the fourth


& treacle tarts

with clotted cream


a musty book

a badger bark


the smoking ghost

of joan of arc


plus silver bells

& cockle shells


with hints of piss

this bus stop smells
