Simon Armitage’s poem ‘A Vision’ is a contemporary piece based on a balsa-wood model of a new updated Huddersfield town, he had seen as a child in the local Town Hall. The poem is set out in a structured, orderly way like architecture. Five stanzas long, each containing 10 syllables, with a distinct but inconsistent iambic pentameter.
