HAYWARDS — LIMITED — MAKERS — LONDON

Upside down, standing up and out on the steel of cellar plate

HAYWARDS — LIMITED — UNION — STREET

What stands there now?

Fresh glass-bound blocks, balconies crowded out

With detritus of a human-sized life

Overflowing from flat-lived reality

A gravel plot, somehow resisting

The demanding thirst for land and growth

A Lime bike, upset and scattered

By the phone box red commercial bins

Or perhaps the Haywards’ bricks still stand

Holding close within to rows of desks

Or stark white walls and a vast nostalgic collage

Plastered up from some Brighton studio

HAYWARDS — LIMITED — LONG — GONE

Long gone but still capturing my attention

Sitting here on a cloudless Friday morning
