Compose a short description of a dreary town square with banners.

The singular melody plucked from a string instrument strains to eke out an existence amidst the quietude above the streets. Several dark banners stationed in even intervals inflate with each gust of wind, adding a percussive beat to the periodic movement in the city. The fabric also buffers rooftop loiterers from the all-too-observant eyes of law enforcement prowling through the shadows.
