My Broken Windowpane...

A torrent unforeseen
Pounds the asbestos
Into life...
Its tears
Shattering my windowpane...
And through the shards,
I look across
At a desert
Of empty houses...
Concrete,
Devoid of humane odour...
For all floats away
Unaccounted for,
Into a dark dingy nowhere...
Yet they are all a-smiling
Like little bulbs,
Maliciously brilliant in their light...
With all their darkness
Teetering at the edge,
Of unkempt dwellings...
Where water seeps
Silent, vicious...
There begins
Another breakdown of humankinds...
And all this, I watch
Safe...
From the other side
Of my broken windowpane...
