Self explanatory really, look at the state of what I have produced in the vein of JCC
Nowhere Town
The giro queues
Around the block
Of men in work wear
Still on the clock
Back to the sites
Once they’ve signed-on
The job centre clerk
Is in on the con
The town hall bells
Rattle the ears
The dinner time walk
For a round of beers
The pubs are full
With the early birds
They’ll be there till last orders
throwing up on the kerb
Psycho Keith
Fumbles in his pockets
Looking for change
From his deceitful profits
He cashed June’s cheque
Down at the pawn shop
His face ready for the pavement
The drunken nob
The ladies on the markets
Wearing fingerless gloves
Shouting prices
For their cream and rubs
‘Come and get your punnets’
‘Fish fish fish fish’
‘Kojak on video’
Knocked off satellite dish
This town’s population
Covered in a film
From the defunct chimneys
Of victorian mills
Its clearly visible
Even if you don’t look
Its not machine washable
Or partial to a scrub
You cannot clean
This permanent tattoo
The people never leave
The nowhere town is a glue
