Cities’

 

Absorbed by mill owners-union comrades,

Or inundates that shedding clouds & eyes;

The streets tearing down disquiet rubbers,

Feet agitated scurrying for bread besides.

 

Trains packed with emptiness, flesh in friction,

Eyes never meet to ever greet;

Waves’ surprises with years of dirt submerged,

As Each, craving to hold entirety below feet.

 

The art ain’t art but diversion distraction,

In political correctness where ackers’ spent;

Who owns who what where how, now or then;

Names no more real, alas, alias within.

 

No mercy joy peace time on puffery lands,

Thoughts confined to boxes, boxes within;

Whether tier two or three one goes; alas,

Cities’ are now all from row houses begin!😇
