Town centers
town centers ave gone nocternal
pound stores seem like There never ending
Ozing from dead shop carcases
Like how weeds strangle the life
From abandoned gardens
Most. Town centers looking. Like this
No parling signs
With eyes in the sky's
With threats of gettin clamped up
or Even worse getting fined
Streets barely inhabited
Day time covertly sides into night
Under darkening skies
N dirty yellow street lamps
Casting shodows over
Home bound shop assistants
N homeless unemployed shop workers
There's a fine line to tread
Like 4 weeks rent
N a full mental breakdown
Not paying national unsurance stamps
seperatting The workers tramps
Many living on amber
Dreading lights flickering to red
Busses full of none communicating
Strangers
All carrying the weight of the world
Inside there bowed
Hoody covered heads
Only speaking a word
Into a glass screens
On there devices
Or worse still framnticlly
Textin
Not doing eye contact in public
There not that confident
Not shure how it would be taken
No matter what their job title or age is
Theres sirens blue flashing lights
People in black doing there civic duty
Breaking up fights
Aresting people urinating on war memorials
They dont show this to tourists
N breaking up fights
Night time things
Raley
Divided by charity shops
