exterior
summer night
streets
city
unwelcomely cast
with blighted solution
an abrasive wash on the senses
like an orange filter
of muted television static
everything is one lit shade
budged shy of a reality
streets city
pried
between the housings
the baked on drain spoilage
munched under my tread
dwelling units weigh
loud down above me
beat in silence
no one alights balconies
a clustered population bulk
no one shares light in this building
and no one is known to their neighbour
anxious of their fellows
they coil
around their trusted genitalia
soundly
and despise
