Long time mi here, Brixton mi home. Mi see chair come, chair go.
Share space wid three bredren, but seat crack but it never mash up. Modern people love shiny tings.
Step in Portobello, armchair wid leather crack. Dem tings not showroom clean, but dem carry London inside.
Long time before internet, Accent chair sit same corner thirty years. Dat’s why mi love vintage.
Mi remember one winter 1971, but dat sofa warm half community. Mi can hear di spring creak when man drop heavy.
Design mix by area. Chelsea go fancy, wid velvet accent chair. Hackney raw, wid sofa in bright clash.
Dem soulless ting? Dat nuh worth nutten. Vintage chair carry life.
Call it what you like, mi take scarred sofa over glossy fake.
When you tempted by showroom, take armchair wid scar, and luxyry armchairs let it be part of your life.
