Piccadilly (Part 1) The original shape of this historic town still exists, and as tired looking as it may be, it's a rock; it has character and elements that allude to a former greatness and you'll either write it off and put it down or you'll support it and want it to find its feet again ..

The Bands; the good times .. the bouts of temporarily tinnitus! I regularly walk past the memories of such and fondly recall the time that I simply opened that door and walked into the Iron Maiden soundcheck unchallenged and watched in awe! The night that followed was awesome - my second ever gig!

The doors closed for the last time some weeks ago now but it's been an arduous process of getting gone .. a despot of a landlord who wanted a creative community and yet killed it off! Anyhow .. 70 artists gone and everything is out .. Unfortunately, had to leave the Victorian Quarry Tile floor!

Dead head Nothing in the clasp Of a demotic agrarian Except cleavers, willowherb & lady’s mantle. He is sorely tried. Everywhere shepherds purses are ripped From the bitter soil. Undone. They lie shrivelled in musky heat, Gazumped by time, weedy, poor, Unable to fight. M @imcmillan.bsky.social
