Carrow Hill blurs; mist
gives way to an easterly wind
moving people urgently along the street
except those that can’t, who shuffle
wrapped in padded coats.
.
Thorpe St Andrew beyond the railway
behind a grey shroud of rain
is the backdrop to the shopping park
lit bright at noon.
Darkness is upon us.
.
Snow is due overnight
ten centimetres or more
to settle with the flood water
already turning to ice.
.
There is little distinction
between days, so I feel
the need remains
to count the nights
