earth note 782


orange sometimes pink
street lights before dawn
climbing up and down hills
out of charles street valley
buena vista street
city steps & radio-tv towers
satellite dishes
talk amongst themselves
the snow leaves a new landscape
windows reflecting
the illusion of a desert town with castanets
somewhere in the distance
it's those lights again
city crews will be replacing the ones
who have died
with the ground common
always leaving you
with more dark
than light
