THE BEST PUBLIC SPEAKER

THE BEST PUBLIC SPEAKER

ASLEEP IN SIZE NINES by John Townsend

Asleep for so many
too many to grasp
locked in a cold
cell of ice.
Unknown existance
a traveller from afar
suddenly stops travelling
he is going nowhere.
Fictious person
without an ID
DNA non existant
who can he be,
no fingerprints
or colour in eyes
just blue skinned
cold in the ice.
Only his shoes tell a story
they are size nine
and come from The Shoe Factory.
Who is the person
face peering through ice
only thing we know
is he wore size nines.
