just getting out of this city for one night felt like a holiday
there were no palm trees or sandy beaches
and there was always a cloud in the sky
but in the evening I could see the stars
no bright lights, no drama, the canopy a masterpiece
and no cacophony save the choir of crickets content
we found a tree fallen across the most perfect stream
only yards from suburban houses
and a bustling suburban town
if they keep putting up tower blocks
we will have nowhere to escape to
that's kind of worth thinking about, right?
