Policeman, Stoke Newington

'Policeman, Stoke Newington' by Peter Daniels

by Peter Daniels 6th April 2012

Standing close up to a policeman,
I can get a free look at his
uniform, its unrevealing midnight matt cloth
and silvery buttons, its clever gussets,
and places for his walkie talkie,
yes, his walkie-talkie tucked under his tunic.
Serious tailoring.
