Empty Spaces
Today Lesley needed to go to get some make up from Debenhams. We decided to go to The White Rose Centre. I know it’s midweek, but I am amazed that there aren’t more retailers going out of business. There was a distinct lack of footfall and shop assistants were just twiddling their fingers.
Empty Spaces
Soulless spaces
Once vibrant places
Echoing with muzak
Shops back to back
Empty and desolate
Some closed indefinite
Gone are the kids
Disney on the skids
M&S no customers today
Not even for old biddies lingerie
Argos now apologetically sat in a corner
Awaiting a buyer like Little Jack Horner
No coffee and buns at Patisserie Valerie
The end is quickly becoming a reality
Online has finally taken its toll
On a once thriving Leeds shopping mall
