No Exit Alleyways
Shanty town ramshackle abandoned souls
Voodoo possessed abrasive friction matchboxes
Ignitable stick figures rattling inside
Crusty scabs ready to strike
Ghostly junkyard scrap iron cemetery
Holes patched with sticky tarpaper
Corrugated steel rooftops dripping rust
Fierce thunderstorm downbeat lightning discharge
Grub worms wriggle through filth
Smarmy hagglers peddle unwanted leftovers
Addicts desperate for quick fix
Pitiless hell bent condemned nightmares
