Red Cone (LF) #186-demolishing

demolishing

the pot plant watches the traffic pass by
the succulent watches the lunch crowd
it is warm inside outside it is crisp
the sky is pale grey
almost the colour of the grey haired lady nearby
across the road it is suburbia
1940s houses being demolished
the structure of the roof is all that remains
fallen bricks remember the family
time like the traffic has passed
high rise apartments are emerging
the traffic keeps passing
old houses not worn out keep disappearing
apartments keep growing tall
and people keep lunching
