Milk-Money Door bright daffodil day embarrassed matures redundancy stamped stand Dole-Queue silent in the happy sunshine teleworkers gathering gaze in compensation young things pout into hidden mobiles hand held to ear stomach-bared vogue on one leg doesn’t open till ten on no-job-yet Tuesday pushy prams queue harassed singles loose children ram legs poised on steps to milk-money door this doesn’t seem to be a happy event there’s fetid foam squashing through smashed windows rusted frames rot ugliness everywhere still… it’s the most popular place in town.
