City

Ali

The plastic and metal village
Passes me by
In my white,lighted box
As the neon signs flash
"SEX SELLS-LIVE MUSIC 2NITE"
While beers are being poured and
Angels dance above us and
Devils die below us
Radio spurts the freeway to eternal life
While wisdom is found nowhere,
Will never be found
On the streets of the city
Where money turns unspoiled

Ah so there is another city poem, I like the tempo of it, it feels like driving through a city at night, when all you get are half glimpses of alleyway fights and neon lights.

tater tots are light beagels toasted
cream cheese is a bold move
o
words coming in and in of focus
leaving again
to the true maening of what was
cuz
real is real reguardlsee of what you try to giv e or give away
words that are relentless while words distract and dismany
words that change their tune while the story remains the same
word s that fill me quickly and then are slow to drain
word s that dither down relentlessly like the way it likes to rain
words that change their tune although the story remains the same
words taht fill me quickly adn then are slow to drain'
aoh to fill up the clutter of words spoken that sing and sing in my head
there's nothing like your barritone
like locusts sing and sing in my head
there's nothing like your barritone

The forgetfullness of age
has everything to do with understanding tempo
of life
and love
with the pull of every cigarette and cigar
I choke on the sadness around the lips of your facaded smile when I see you stand alone...
Your words mean nothing..
you should just smoke away and salivate upon the wishes of your expectations
and let me comfort your wounds in my bright, blue, bed,
in my city filled with extreme benelovolance.
Play in my City People.
Welcome to Trenton.
