heavy cloud
dissuading me from a bike ride
cancelled class

echoing footsteps
through the Wolverhampton underpass
heel clicks on pavement
and the scuff on cheap trainers.
A purse, clutched tight
as dear drives the length of stride
forty feet, thirty feet, twenty...
and then the streetlights and traffic
of Wednesfield Road
and the cheering warmth of a double decker.
