So he returns again
For the first time in
What must be weeks
Construction wears so thin
Pulse is genuine
Working toward a new streak
Watching the street lights change
From green to yellow to red
Peering out farther than he’s seen before
Watch his own body melting there
Out in the snow
He’s a picture for a future age
He’s the scribbling on a crumpled page
Painted up blue and grey
Call off the railroad dogs
Rent the monologues
Help him understand
Lost in the endless fog
Of cars and catalogues
All fall under his command
Watching the street lights change
From green to yellow to red
Imprinted city street lies far below
Watch his own body melting there
Out of control
He’s a picture for a future age
He’s the scribbling on a crumpled page
Painted up blue and grey.
