"Skunk Hour" seems to be talking about a small town that has lost a lot of it's people and seems now that the only life you see is a skunk. It could be that this is a tourist town and it is out of season so there are no tourists right now. Or it could be a town that has just went down economically. The line that says "the season's ill" makes me think that it is a tourist town and it always seems dead and dreary when there are no visitors. I am sure there are many towns like this that are very lively during the season, but then seem so dead that even the skunks aren't scared to come out.
