city

 
i will be the gap
that one minds.
i will be the blank space
on a crowded wall
 
i will be the footprints
lost in a maze of others
i will be the air
in a conversation
 
i will be the cigarette
one must not smoke
i will be
an illicit meal, high
in fats and sugars
 
i will be every alley
and rat’s run
i will be
broad boulevards and
tall buildings
 
i will be the hole
i will be the city.

  1. Was just marvelling at how gaps and holes and silences are overlooked in the hurly burly world. This is superb Bruce. Hope to see you today at Speeds...
