1:20 am.

The hungry,

the sick

&

tired.

The lost,

battered,

beaten,

&

starved.

 

The streets sweat themselves clean

again & again

until

there is no

place

for a heart.

 

The forgotten - to be.

I see

them.

Everywhere.

Their faces

pass me

like an airliner

to a

bus.

 

Something grand will be crashing

and dwindlng in size

learning how

to live

with different sets

of eyes.
