FIREWORKS LOST



yellow and red banners
with
happy drawn rockets
go 
up
on
old
A-frame
trailer
and
on
the
tumbling
front fences

the bungalow on the derelict compulsory-purchase corner plot
open 
for
business
one 
last 
time

one last time to go in the french doors
onto
the
carpet
of dirt and buried rugs
and
get
talked into buying a bigger box of bangflash
than 
intended

before
its
flattened
for 
'800 new homes, 35 percent of them to be affordable'
