I march, kerbside
Past the plastic-shielded pushchair
The mother with the felted hat.
I trudge, texting, in the downpour -
Long exposure to these streets
Ensures my avoidance
Of lampposts and flimsy trees.
I traipse through puddles, booted -
Downhill now
Downhill to our meeting place -
But you haven't replied.
