Downtown
By Timothy "Svantevit" Nikolas
Behind glorious uptown, Behind golden streets,
Behind the shimmering, shining, mirrored monoliths,
Behind ragged streets, Behind the ruined hotel,
Behind the empty, expelled, decrepit, depressing projects
Lies the face of this city,
Lies the hurried whores,
Lies the poshed pimps,
Lies the jaundiced johns,
Lies the defeated dealers,
Lies the usual users,
Lies the destitute, damned, broken, beaten, shattered, selfish, hopeless, hapless
hated
face of this city.
Oh, behind glorious uptown.
