Manchester Man

MANCHESTER MAN

Your chiseled good looks

Inspiring books of poetry,

Words symbolically clashing

Packed with passion,

Meteorically rising

Then falling on wet bank holidays.

Image of a god, A god of imagery

Swallowing words in rising tides.

No one hides from your critical eyes

Flowers fade in your presence,

Time wears your essence.

Absent minds will find the answers,

Cutting through your soulful words

As your genius escapes

On the wings of dying birds.
