WITH THE AUTHORITY OF AN INDUSTRY ANALYST




hmv sells nostalgia now
lps there i ignored 
the first time around

old metalheads
list records in surprise
bruce dickinson ! the kinks !

~

i hear a man
loud & off somehow
tell his ladyfriend
quiet but off somehow
about how he owned a record player

just like this one

& when he says

im glad vinyl is making a comeback

with the authority
of an industry analyst
she answers

who is vinyl ?

~

i take a punt
on a jazz percussionist
with a reduced sticker

its a name i can almost place

& leave
thru the merch blockade
of
tshirts & totes & tat
