STREET

condiments dry up 
in 
Homebase cupboards
on
soft bungalow row
and
veterans wrap up in quilted beige
and 
roll out on electric wheels for the bingo papers 
and
side-of-the-mouth Little Britain hobnobbing
and
in a red anorak like a Red Devil 
the 
postman comes in shorts and ear buds
hissing tinny downloads
with
a bulky bag of Money Rain-
photoshopped pizza pamphlets
and
guilt trip charity begging
when 
he 
could 
bring anything from anywhere
at
all
