In the poem the character is both hostile and pleading in a desperate attempt to get attention because of the way in which he feels he has been ignored by society. Although both poems feature characters shunned by society they are written from contrasting points of view. ‘The Clown Punk’ is written from the view point of a father who is driving “home” through the “shonky” part of town.

Gaffney highlights John’s alienation because of the new world’s discouragement for Shakespeare. The awkward situation leaves him embarrassed, beginning his isolation from modern society.
