Night light,
City bright,
Shimmering, reflecting,
This artificial world.
Disrespecting naturally,
The real light.
The moonlight, stars bright,
Pinpointing the vastness
Of the endless universe.
Rainbow Serpent River
Forever twisting embracing,
This manmade metropolis.
Where does your true spirit dwell?
Whispering warnings
That time will change all.
Water deep remembering,
All living, longer than memory,
Can recall.
All I ask is,
Will it all crumble to dust?
To become discarded and forgotten as us?
Those of the streets and alley ways.
Gutters and drains?
Forgotten and in pain.
Wind come blow away
The darkness of this night
Let me write.
By daylight,
And live within my words.
Dedicated to all who find themselves without a roof to shelter them.
