Let us pass over the reasoning for being there - it is a shelter I've noticed before, and wondered at the railway station style of its metalwork. If, as David Seabrook suggests, a tram ran past here from Cliftonville, then maybe it acted as a tram stop.

Here TSE sat and drafted The Waste Land.

He should see Margate now.

On Margate Sands

Out to sea, though, the Kentish Flats Offshore Wind Farm, the sea forts built during the Second World War, ferries and freight, and the cranes for the Turner Gallery. On the beach, what is claimed to be a jazz festival, but sounds like noise to me. And then, over my shoulder, the battered facade of Dreamland -


- and yes, it was there, the park at least, in 1920, as was the Scenic Railway.

I see hordes of people walk around in a ring.

Was the first draft The Dream Land?

I sit and read through the poem, slotting it together.

... Nothing with nothing
