The Broken City Silhouette;
Neon lights give some colour
to disguise memories of unforgiven streets,
Whilst those who had to walk upon them
find no comfort from procedure appologies.
Discarded newspapers give a voice
to proclaim 'achievement' of military victory,
Whilst obedient citizens forget the time
When the war prisoners were their neighbours.
Empty alleys give some shelter
to hide the faces of forgotten heroes,
Whilst prettier people who take their places
ignore the fact that they'll soon be hated.
Polluted clouds give a warning
to prepare the world for identical ruin,
Whilst I now join the few who've wept
for the broken city silhouette.
