Railway - a true memory poem

Esme picks up rubbish

 

  Bin after black plastic bag

Shedloads pf rubbish.

Old rubbish

 

bottles glass, plastic crisp bags

Piles  of the stuff

 

She bags it up.

 

 

   ' Baggsy a job!'

 

Im so damn bored with cleaning  the Savoy

Cinema in Exmouth

 

I apply sucessfully for support work

Night shift

 

Im am now Esme's support worker

 

 

I work for Rethink Mental Illness

In Exeter

 

 It used to be called

 

The National Schitzophenia Fellowship

 

Self help

 

with support

 

They changhed the label

after they Put out the Advert

 

Schizophenia - A National Emergency

 

Anyhow here I go

Following after young Esme

 

Like Momma Goose

 

I say to her

 

'Now Esme

You don't have to do this

 

Do you'

 

(By the way did I tell you this was all ar Exeter Central Train Station)
