Issue #8

bad news girl on northern rail

approach toytown waterways
hilarity in absence                                                                                   
to 18 -  intense hazel
  wrong place, right time      

constant amber. doubt flickers
affleck’s café exotic
cut short star in manchester 
check the guy’s track record                                                                     

the hiss in glorious. full
denied celebration of
oxford road in pastel pinks

manacled to the city     

abandoned intercity                                                                                  
carriages. it’s too much change                                 
printworks closed. tramlines furrowed
guide me soft
