It’s March, it’s snowing. 

But somehow I think 

that if the sun breaks

 

we’ll see bare chested 
men parade Westgate 
as if Greek gods

 

flexing non existent muscles, 
their stomachs held in,
northern teeth exposed.

 

Whilst a plough grits 
last night’s kebab meat 
and knickers for posterity.

Haha!  That happens around here too. Something fragile and hopeful about that image.
