Please Hold On

By sjlavery

A big lady in pink shoes
Exchanges a kiss
Halfway between St Pancras
And Kings Cross.

On the 214 to Highgate Village
Past the Frame Emporium
And the ancient church
Past Royal College Street at 11.44.

People walking on by
Strapped to their phones
Past the Hopeless n Anchor
Boarded up, forever closed.

Now I’m almost there
At Camden High Street
So please hold on
The bus is about to move.
