WhoTom Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Sprawling on the fringes of the cityIn geometric orderAn insulated borderIn-between the bright lightsAnd the far, unlit unknown Growing up, it all seems so one-sidedOpinions all providedThe future pre-decidedDetached and subdividedIn the mass-production zone Nowhere is the dreamerOr the misfit so alone SubdivisionsIn the high school hallsIn the shopping mallsConform or be cast out SubdivisionsIn the basement barsIn the backs of carsBe cool or be cast out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Climbing up on Solsbury Hill I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing, stretching every nerve Had to listen, had no choice I did not believe the information Just had to trust imagination My heart going boom, boom, boom "Son", he said, "grab your things, I've come to take you home" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
