Downward Trend
Bleak city scenes
outlined
by dark shadows
a cat runs
into an alleyway
which winds its way
between two
grey stone apartment buildings
Tired eyes view a dark metropolis
everyone who has a
home
is on the
way there
the moon casts
its rays
on the night people
who (with eyes that pierce the darkness)
seek out the
light which is coming soon
in the all - too - real
morning
