Gimmie a f**king Chair!
Life on the streets
a busted ass full of concrete
or waffle butt from a crate,
uncomfortable seating to say the least
best to keep on your feet.

so there
not a bubonic plague
or a great fire or a blitz
could make us head for the
exits pursued by a bear

Cement in The Soul
In the wilderness
you will find the wild,
in the city, the docile.

Night Calling
Downtown
Deserted streets
Lone doorway
Calling you
Electronic haze
Trance
Ambient
Sexual
Night speak
Grind
Getting off
City lights
Beckon you
Full stop

18th and Michigan Avenue
That high road
people tell you to take
is straight and narrow,
basically no fun.
Take a scenic more sarcastic route,
there'll be some twists and several turns.

Hibiscus flower
Pops out from the urban grey
A ruby on a ring
Its bony finger in decay
