It's a zero moon night, And the City still burns bright enough to steal the stars from the sky. Like space Ain't got nuthin in it!
Only the Radio Red Eyes twinkle in their towers for me, Playing airial scarecrows For the Jet-Set.
Worry so **** much about the skyline that you Forgot about the Sky! Taking men off the moon so you can run the lights, so that your building looks nice, For when whoever else is up at 1:00 A.M. E.S.T., comes barreling down through the cut in the hill to finally feast their eyes on the city that never wakes up.
I'm Never gonna see Mars at this rate.
Another from a series of poems written on a bridge in Cincinnati.
