~ HELL CITY ~
Aged furnaces firing words to the heart
Gray circumstance in public quarters
Seemingly expressing the rift in the dark
Robin Hood arrows piercing public order
Government and politics melting the borders
This is the twenty first century of sweat
The town where food is brown and so is love
Where fun doesn't exist except in the bet
Where god does not necessarily exist above
Where god does not, cannot, believe in love
Adventure does not exist in the Hell City
Poetry, certainly a thing of its past
Ragged gardening gloves representing pretty
Snails leaving trails in cyber space fast
A planet of apes in destinies dance
Human ooze, the birthing of mind
Quelling diamonds in the heart of pity
Where the old elixir pushes time
And the world is repaved
For the heart of Hell City....
Tony Taylor

Epic writing Tony, one that for me reflects the now perfectly. Yet you pen it so poetically beautiful. Even though it is a painful reality. You clever, clever poet :)
