the glimmer in this eye
catches your transient heart,
moving from one to the next
kicking at the dust
and you have to wonder
whose this, is he a lover or a fighter?
running the obstacle course
getting caught up when we're shit out of luck
we're looking for lights,
anything to make this gloom depart
for the glint on the steel girders
in the failing sunlight
it seems somehow more defined
