Cotton rich


Heaps of flat, tightly folded
trousers, mountains of tops
pile high on islands erected to
seduce with £2.50 hanging over -
irresistible - even to those on the dole,
whose grannies would not throw
a jam jar away. Bagfuls of
fresh mouth-watering cotton
and lycra win the prime space in
overcrowded IKEA storage units
and render last season’s stuff
to charity bags waiting
by the letter box.
Who buys second-hand
things from Primark -
do they get shipped back
to their makers?

Nice improvements. £2.50 applies to tops, I guess.

Thank you for the stars, person.
