Roadworks
ROAD WORKS AHEAD
FOLLOW THE DIVERSION
Road-works ? I’d rather have potholes !
Or go on foot, on leather soles.
Engines braying, tempers fraying
More gas, more water,
More electric, fibre-optic
More holes, more chaos !
With what will Wantage strangers greet –
Frustration and a car-clogged street ?
ROAD AHEAD CLOSED
WAIT HERE WHEN RED LIGHT SHOWS
