afford the poverty
of prada tracksuit insurgents
and a middle class flat cap resurgence
flatpack claptrap
covered by a tatty home
insurance jargon pile-on
some people
put on a cockney accent
some put on a pair of pre-ripped jeans
adding insult to injury
they copywrited the graffiti
of true grassroots reaction
for a suit & tie marketing ploy
to sell us back the ghetto.
some people spend money on making themselves
(out to be) poor.
It's always been like that though, when street-wear becomes cool, the high street starts marketing it.
