Dusk, An urban setting

This poem is about nothing

It’s about dusk and urban settings

And dark figures in empty corridors

It’s about being shell-shocked to your core

It’s about seagulls on seashores

And equally dirty whores

This poem is about nothing

It’s about dusk and urban settings

I couldn’t possibly tell you more

Except that this has happened,

It has happened before

When the asphalt tore

It tore through my doors

With that awful, awful deafening roar

And I felt it in my pores

Until everything became worn

This poem is about nothing

It’s about dusk and urban settings

Nothing less, nothing more.
