NYC

the living is denser here, isn't it?
blades of grass grow too close together, all the
potential of the earth forced through tiny cracks
and occasionally expansive lawns

there's a certain intensity about it
wondering where all of these people sleep
wondering if i've every seen any of these people before
knowing that most of them probably look right through me

but that's okay, i'm not bitter about it
or anything, it is only nice to know
that i've seen them-- i may not remember it but
they cannot be unseen

and now they are real
