I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. When it come to seat, mi know what last. Mi live top floor above de shop, but dat armchair keep we warm. Young ones buy, retro style sofa bed throw away fast. Step in Portobello, you see retro style armchair sofa pile high. Not factory shine, but dem honest. Back in de day, Accent chair sit same corner thirty years. Every scratch talk story. We drag it on trolley all di way Brixton, but Beer spill, children jump, reggae shake wall.
Dat sofa part of mi life. Postcode tell story too. Chelsea go fancy, wid deep wingback. Hackney raw, wid upcycled seat. All dem catalogue chair? Dem got no memory. Vintage chair tell history. Truth be told, mi pick funky armchair over soulless sofa. When you tempted by showroom, stop an look round, and watch it age same way as you.
