The first line started out well..I don't know what happened.
Through city stretch binoculars
Still wet with fingertips
I watched your old ghost climb through
Street cracks and hurried lips
Frantic pea-coated lovers cry
Combat boots too heavy to move
With perfectly embossed eyes
And hands with coffee mug grooves
I watched an old man drop his cane
From the top of a sky scraping world
Liberated from his ball and chain
And now unable to move
His paralyzed legs didn't worry him
Now his words moved like acrobats
Because he was far too young
To eat up what he had lacked
The window that had stared me down
Now fogged up it's own face
And billions of feet kiss their leader's heels
While I I daydream you and pace
The circumference of my eyes is filled with a ring
From peering through crystal glass
And my legs have been crossed and fallen asleep
Like every single person who has passed
:(
