Mum - St Pancras

sitting in the longest champagne bar
it's hard to explain
just what I did
among all this Gothic splendour

she looks as if
I built it single-handed
rather than designing
a few electrical interfaces

so when the trains come in
their power works, the signalling,
and the customer information
tells their story

but still it was at the top
of her birthday visits
and we could all walk around
with a certain proprietal pride.
