NaPoWriMo day twenty four. I’ve been away in London for a few days and didn’t get to post a poem yesterday so this is poem number twenty three and I am a day behind again. I will catch up over the weekend. In the meantime this poem is called Hipster Cocktail and was in fact inspired by a few strolls through Borough Market in the Southwark area of London
Hipster Cocktail
Old is the new, new
the new, new
is the new old
last year’s thing
is way too young
reuse, recycle
pre-love me up
and make it retro-tastic
vinyl kills disc every time
make it local and organic
or don’t make it at all
mass production
is the mass murder
of our trades people
hit me with your
gentrification stick
make mine a Hipster
and make it slow
retro hip cocktail sip
I like it 🙂
