Nothing to See Here

​Stark angles
Dark windows
No color
Only black and white and gray.
 
Nothing growing
Nothing green
Trash bags on the sidewalk
Nothing to see here.
 
No homeless people
No down and out
With no place to go
They’re invisible.
 
The sidewalks are clean
No debris
No cigarette butts
No sign of life.
 
Just two trash bags
Neatly tied
Hiding all signs of life
Inside.
