Night Light

Night Light David J Walker By night In flight You can see the lights that Blink and shine on the City of the Mesa Hundreds of thousands crowd The borders and boundaries of The out-of-date asphalt plat Where farm and field Yield to the plans of the City planners Pushing the planters Further south by southwest Where Builders In hot pursuit bring cash and call For more of the plowed furrows To fall to the Developments growing the City Give us this day Our daily bread Give us our water As precious as blood Flood the flat plain With the prayed for rain Washing both thirst and sin away By night In flight You can plainly see What you can’t seen In daylight
