shoes on the telephone wire: A Poem
Loki1515 has written a poem about shows on telephone wires:
the city streets,
with children skipping ropes
and dogs running,
fades into night,
with the automatic lights.
with children skipping ropes
and dogs running,
fades into night,
with the automatic lights.
you look above,
to see the pole
the energy, a box, some wires
all interconnected along the street
you follow the wires,
almost hypnotically
as the car moves on
the lines roll like waves upon a sea of sheet music
blank of notes, you continue to read them
scanning the rhythm,
a bump appears.
old shoes
hung by their laces
a hidden message
of desperation
change
time
life
