PASSERSBY

Work in progress...

Times Square

Thoroughfare

I am only a pedestrian

The clocks my plebeian clones mine

in bustling herds

Rolex and I

Both of us only passersby.

The wilderness stampedes without mercy

nature keeps beasts her fierce company

the jungle wiles of animal farms

deny dismissal of fiscal preys

the seasons hunting party skyline

billboard neon lights

blinks bling blind - passersby...

Caution Danger read the signs

There be hungry homeless desperate

pissed pistol pockets 

insatiable

O G- is for Geezus Juiced guerilla greed

Beware none here care to try

carry on - harry thru - passersby.

black AND white / hate is colorblind

Chi-raq cries otherwise

Did you glimpse a good life, in passing by?

The fatal wounds of uncaring times

Each of us a single bullet

each one for another

shots in the dark - all passersby

I am one pedestrian

walking the tight rope towers with time

You and I and together all

passersby...

(to be cont.)
