36 stories tall stands this condo block , on it's left stands one 47 stories tall Each story harbors as many stories as there are rooms
Windows that encompass the whole floor showcase this life to the world , from where i stand
i can see below me , a man walking into the ally way to wash from a bucket and a bowl , i can see someone watching tv in bed , vest and boxer shorts on whilst his partner sleeps i can see brothers laughing at smokes , lying on air conditioning vents i can see a western woman put her washing in the machine i can see taxi cabs and motorbikes i can see shopping malls and banks i can see progress i can't see progress i can see sadness i can see fear i can smell the nights allure of alcohol and lust
i can see all this from the vantage point of my 15th floor balcony i wonder who see's me ?
can you smell my sandalwood incense as i light a prayer ? what satellite passes above my head? who catalogues this internet usage? where do these words exist apart from on a screen? where have we come from? where are we going? what do we expect?
Humanity has choices to make , break free from the jail keepers handmade jail cell.
frustration at the indifference of the city , of each one of our choices, indifference , indifference. i'd hug you all day if i could and drink whisky and wine andΒ Β gear whaetver sorrows plauged your soul, no one should be alone - there are too many people on this planet for that
