Ilfracombe #ndevon

This is a poem by Pam Ayres. She posted it on Twitter last year. Verity can be seen here.

The residents of Ilfracombe , How they must have sinned, A seaside first by Damien Hurst, A pregnant woman, skinned.

A curse has fell on Ilfracombe, I see the tourists clear, From many lands, all holding hands, And jumping off the pier.
