Cambric shirt freshly laundered and packed,
I’m ready for my journey to Scarborough Fayre.
Via Peter Sutcliffe’s old semi-detached home.
Via the nerve-centre of Hallmark Cards.
Via the silk mill, where Frederick William Jowett
founded the Independent Labour Party in 1892.
Leaving behind this Throstle’s Nest of Brontë Country.
Past the building site of Europe’s largest mosque.
Past the site of the world’s first Morrison’s supermarket.
Past thee John Smith’s brewery in Tadcaster over yonder.
Parsley, sage, rosemary
and seagull guano.
