A haberdasher’s is hardly a terrible loss

It was not a place I ever went in much

Although I admired the near-redundant, near-extinct

Art of dressing the provincial shopfront

The quaint pre-war touches: how the ladies’ shirts

Were tied in pretty ribbons at their waists

And jaunty trilbies floated over dancing jackets

Bearing pockets of silken hanky points.

And often I have seen gentlemen cradling paper bags

Of slippers and shoes with new black heels

Slipping out from under the shop’s sun blind

And disappearing down the modern street
