HIKE

I’ve been on an eight mile hike with my mate, getting out of town.                                                               

Up roads, to the Waterworks to give a witch my Amelia Earhart spell.                                                                                    

Venturing through farmer’s fields, over dry stone walls and under barbed wire fences.                                         

Wondering, where’s the damn path?                                                                                                        

Up to Bishop’s Park monument, fucking crazy view of crap Oldham,                                               

Manchester and distant Warrington. I went to look at the distance marker

but some cunt had nicked it!                                                                                                                                                   

How high up are we, one thousand feet I think.                                                                                           

Back down to get ale and kebab, into town.                                                                                              

We saw a homeless cunt who wished us,                                                                                                          

“Have a shit evening lads!”                                                                                                                     

Fuck you too tramp!                                                                                                                                  

We saw the after affects of a lad being hurt,                                                                                        

fifty yard blood trail that led from the back of the ambulance to another pub.                                                        

My shit town, we escaped for a bit.
