"Urban" by Max PhineasRooftop to rooftop
Down the fire escapes
We are but shapes.
Fleeting avenues
Beneath drenched awnings
We skate puddled passes
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses...
Supersonic,
Polyphonic,
Congregation,
Convolution
Shameless disillusion,
Nameless delusion.
This place is not the problem
It's The Solution.
