ALL AGLOW - (previously broadcast on BBC Radio 4)

Written By: Brian Clark

 

Mill girls

scurrying to clock on,

crowned with coloured curlers,

shivering.

Young heads bowed

in the rain-grey gloom of the back-to-backs:

'Howjagerron las' night wi' Jimmy Fairfax?'

'Well....alright....y'know'

As they glance at the clock above the sign:

UNCLE JOE'S MINT BALLS KEEP YOU ALL AGLOW!

 

Blonde Betty

crosses the cobbles

stiletto-heeled wobbles

for her Romeo and Valentine

at the shop below the sign:

UNCLE JOE'S MINT BALLS KEEP YOU ALL AGLOW!

she dreams of Majorca

and buys a quarter

to keep her all aglow.
