Holly Magill - ‘Everyone deserves quality…’*

‘Everyone deserves quality…’*
Holly Magill

The incumbent Conservative will cut
the shiny red ribbon, celebrate

130 jobs created – including artisan bakers,
sushi chefs, specialist prosecco pourers.

(The paper doesn’t mention the cleaners.)

There’s free wifi and 285 parking spaces;
a wine bar featuring a microbrewery draft pump
– only the second of their UK stores to have that.

Come on in, feel posh – look, you can
vote for their next charity of the month
with a plastic token, not have to give

a penny or a fuck.

* from a Waitrose advertising slogan

Holly Magill is from Worcestershire. Her poetry has appeared in various publications including The Poets’ Republic, RAUM and Ink, Sweat & Tears.
