Empty Houses : Life

written by Poet : EC


Close in on empty streets
no living soul to be seen
take a look at the houses
empty, derelict and suffering
everywhere they erode
all that's left is rubble

What is this city of empty houses?
I think they map the human soul
the stage is called "soullessness"
no movement behind those windows
maybe a rat or two
nothing more until the tumbledown
bricks and wood in a heap
look, what a human, had a hard life
