The city grows and bloom

each day on the lifeless trees 

and scattered debris

in the hope of progress.

Digging foundation for

the marvel of the upcoming century

sonic boom, roaring engines

under the boulders to build a Paradise.

Resides the darkened and delirious mind

in gloomy surroundings  

A layer of black fog that clings to the mind

like the gusty wind of summer night.

My ear cocks in the air

each time, every time to see

a shard of humanity

in the shallow mindset hitherto.

A terrible avenger under the shadows of the concrete jungle...
