Metropolis Iv

She walks ancient canyons 
twisted steel monolithic spires.
Racing high her memory clouded 
gray sky leadened in pain.
Like someone quietly loosen their hair 
Let storms gather along a deserted plain, bring…
How her hands clutches as lightning gathers 
Like ravens at a murder, sing…
she rises to meet the rain
From the cold steel day 
Light delays in the canyons 
of a cold iron metropolis 
Metropolis…!
