Love" Party Behind me David and Carol are singing carols. The window’s smudged where we wiped away patches of our breath and though it’s getting dark on the other side of the sky I watch a broken day in Hulme the splintered boarded windows the sun skimming gold off the grey deck-access. Through the sun a seagull wheels over Trafford Salford Moss Side whole half a city pacing between the derelicts and the junctions beating the walls with its ineffectual fists. So this is the end of day. The buses home in to the end of long roads and leave as if they’d never been, slide toward Fallowfield and Didsbury disappear into this or that row of houses like people you’d like to know… ‘Sorry for ignoring you,’ they say. ‘No no I’m alright’ roughly speaking, though my legs are aching leaning on the window-jamb from the party last night oh and I’d hoped to be the life and soul I’d planned to tell the girl the truth instead I watched her slide her fingers through the fingers of the other boy and turned my head away (Hulme drowns in a glorious sunset the litter moves slightly a taxi halts for the lights some people cross the street and are gone).
