Small, Poor Cities.

Small, Poor Cities

The spaces are large in apartment cities
Now.  Everything is spiraling downward.
There is a city within a city, and homeless
People are vast.  Cities are vast within
Themselves.  There are changes in the
City, that move the people, and the people
Are moved.  Everything is adjacent.  Someone
Is running a small button service.  Another person
Is filing for bankruptcy.  I think the homeless have it
Worse, because there is hunger and crime and
Frighteningly large pockets, so large that boats
Fall through them.  And then the timelessness
Exists, each and every day in the cities; some
Problems will never be solved.  But someone solves
A problem here and there for thousands of people,
And those are the ones who we should be grateful
For, and the calmness of it, and the grandness of it,
Exceed the ocean.  Because the ocean is vast and

It is calm.
