We went up to the building site, saw the bricks and the concrete piles and watched them all working, building muscles and no one smiled. We stood there and watched them, staring back in complete contempt. "I'm building a building" signed his name in the wet cement. We walked through the cemetery, social tombstones in black and gray. Someone one had a bunch of flowers, talking sentiments felt ok. We stood in the shadows; feeling it was that time of day when everything gloomy hits the light as it fades away. We came to conclusions, knew that life was a paradox. So many illusions kept alive until the old ones dropped. Demolishing lifestyles, building up all the tower blocks. If life is so sacred, why spend it all in a man-made box? We stared at the empty shells, passed a smile and cried a lot. While all this was passing by, no one stopped to see what they've got. They took it for granted, used the space for a parking lot. We'll kill off the real world, allocating the beauty spots. Industrial death camps. Man made something and then forgot. Knew what it should look like. Trod on nature and said, "Well, why not?" But you cannot replace it, just take a photo and watch it rot. And bury the feeling until no one knows that it really meant. Got caught in a landslide and left a name in the wet cement.
