Charlotte in a State


The sisters owned a wool shop

Charlotte in a State

Which was on the corner

Of All Saints Road South

And All Saints Road North

Between 1820 and 1962

All Saints Road East

Had run in the direction

Of the railway station

But this had been truncated

When the Wood Green bypass

Was built to ease traffic congestion

There had never in all this time

Been an All Saints Road West

But there were persistent rumours

That Sweeney Lane

And All Saints Road West

Were one of the same

But this has never been proved
