Smoke Stacks

A tainted window, a solemn door.
Dull monochrome, a place so old
Faded pulchritude, of forgotten times.

Dingy light, ash on the floor.
Another dusty soul, growing cold
In indolence, in blissful ignorance.

A dusky sky, bereft of light.
Of invisible stars, many stories told
Of a lonely sun, in decadent times.

In the future, light shining bright.
Fake hopes, progress foretold
Of changing ways, in changing times!

A million smoke stacks in sight.
Their morbid clouds corrode
A lonely existence, its last chance...
