Look You Poor City
10-19-12
Look you poor city!
At the depravity at hand
Lacking the lover of creation
But fill’d in menacing, smoggy tears
Gutters of murkiness swell thy tongue
Conceiv’d only by the generation
Virus spread—leaving dead
All hope of resurrection
Look at thy doom!
And smell thy rancid fumes
Constru’d in rapid sensitivity
All consciousness glu’d
I ache to find a street
That groweth life—and hope of it
Ache no more as one
But change in unison!
