Remembering Whitby at Halloween ...



There were Halloween spiders in Sainsburys - 

Silky webs veiled the windows - 

Inside there were pumpkins and werewolf masks - 

I considered buying a vampire's cloak - 

I remembered the goths I'd seen in Whitby, the black dresses, the steampunk goggles - 

The abbey had overlooked the darkening sea - 

Sleepwalkers climbed the moonlit steps - 

A stone pier waited for a stricken ship - 

The sky was as black as jet -
