the difference between me and you

new york
i see filth
fragility
waste and
wickedness
i like the subways though

new york
you see riches
glittering in the city lights
youth
glimmering in the night
alluring saffron scented opportunities

san diego

i see salty skin and sandy hair
a tangle of bodies and boards
sparkling in the ocean
suntanned skin and matted hair
a tangle of live wires
sparking in the sun

san diego

you see today’s weather forecast
as a cloud mass of predictability
scattered showers
with a slight chance of suffocation

this is a stalemate with no way out, mate
well, maybe one way out --

australia
the promised land?

australia

the promised land?
