Urban Gallery

A balcony above a city

a gallery filled with express food,

and disposable people.

A yellow ‘M’ glares at passers.

It shines it’s eerie light

on the indigenous of the street.

They sleep, compressed in all

their destitute,

shying away from arrogantly sympathetic stares.

And on this balcony,

above a city of refuse and glorified rot,

your eyes are the only real warmth I see.
