Sirens.
by marcus

Cops beat the boulvard
while the crimanals are elsewhere
causing crime
somesay the times they are a changing
but its more of the same thing
in diffrent packedging
bored with the whores
and johns
who litter the street
genitals waving
with smirks and squints
the hustlers and the pimps
sing vengence
while the kids are soaking wet
from the busted fire hydrent
chasing the days last glimpse of sunset
at night the homeless keep warm
by barrel fires and in an act of defiance
the turn them over
going cold
the roach motels burn like match books
and we are sold on the eternal ending
so we dope up with our pick of poision
ignore the world till we wake ourselves
snoring
some of you will search for truth in her
and the others will find the false hue
of impersonated angels
it was only the street lights
shining behind her head
he walked on
softly into the distance
he looked back and the lights started to fade
walking as far as where the roads aren’t paved
kicking rocks with hands in the pockets
dreaming of leaving this world behind
thinking how do i build rockets
beliving flying far way
might solve the misery
of night and day
his attitude has changed
from dereanged
to strained
stopping to nap
daydreaming
