Mean Streets
...Newspaper blows along rain-washed streets,
dying echoes of hash tags and tweets
promising hook-ups, flash mobs and meets,
long gone to their bed-sits and urban retreats.
Puddles painted with ne...

In the season of the fallen leaf
Pangs of exile, pangs of grief

Who comes from Bootle way,

And on my Liverpo...

The place tourists go to experience and kick up a fuss
