Dark Stares

dark stares
from forgotten faces
walking paths in a city, vast
of iron and glass 
under a burning sky a light
the forgotten legions of man 
ragged and cold indifferent races
huddle around trashcan fires
that litter the bleakest of cities
eyes indifferent conspire
footfalls of something taking flight
like stars falling 
in the deepest night

Thanks for sharing this... Meanwhile, may I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
