modern as they may seem
"young for their time" they'll say
the guy in the back is always gonna speak up
when it's most inconvenient for everyone else in the room
like squawking birds, brass instruments blow notes
poor imitations of jazz greats
they take it back down to the east side
on a cooler day with warmer nights
streetlights just starting to hum
along with the sounds of an uptown city scape
brick met by glass and steel
buildings with old and new designs
industry meets nature meets government housing
sounds at night coming at me from 3 sides
a road, a driveway, more driveways
a cat paws at the door to escape a beater
a sedan, a family size beater
sometimes it's a dog
i'm not a dog person
