Concrete Jungle

It’s a beautiful world, the world I’ve seen,
In an unyielding grey and a glorious green;
Made of equal parts foliage and fibre glass,
It’s an elegant mosaic of cement and grass.
Forests may morph into buildings real tall,
But tenacious creepers still crop out of cracks in their wall;
It’s a tolerant world where trees and towers mingle
Welcome to my world, my Concrete Jungle

A Sinner's Soliloquouy

The sky embraces a murky night,
A mob of clouds trample the moon;
The intoxicated trees sway in a trance,
To the winter wind's melancholic croon.

But I embrace a murky fate,
Destiny tramples my life, my dream;
My hopes are crushed; I'm in a trance,
I can hear the death bells scream.

Lightning flashes an ugly smile,
The thunders roll in derision.
"A sinner pays the price of death",
The whole world screams in unison.

But in the gallows, the clouds condole,
With sepulchral tears all night through;
Until my sinning, putrid blood,
Stains the morning dew.
