Poem: City

Everyone wants to be heard
But everyone is silent at the same time
A contradiction
People the crowning glory of creation
Yet everything is grey and and man made... no nature
A contradiction
Change happens and flows outward
Epicenters create change regardless of good or bad
A truth
We come to grips with our faults
Because we're always in the face of others...suffocatingly so
A truth
The city is a purge of humanity
A melting pot meant to boil
A place to be loved and hated
...a contradiction and a truth
