Michigan Avenue

The snow doesn't fall
On the people of this city,
Angels of asphalt and traffic signs
Gliding softly through this wind-ridden labyrinth.
My part has changed
And my voice is dead
Since I left my pretty cardboard town,
The green lights shining on the children's faces.
Maybe someday I'll have the will
To watch without sound,
And then I'll know
Just where home is.

Interesting, I was going to say the best thing I read today was a survey, but this takes the cake by far. Well done. +T.P.U+
