The sound of a thousand hissing snakes
weaves between creaking brakes,
the audible miscellany of industry.
Insects bathed in primary colors
of various shades and dullness
cruise by, a parade contained on
ribboned strips of black and gray,
pathways from A to B and undesirable
destinations populating in between.
Trees grow in scattered isolation,
glints of color in a place
of dreary practicality. They grow
in a jungle of hardened expectations,
caged by concrete, their roots can only
resist their capture by cracking sidewalk.
