under a rock
a cityscape
hidden from view
roads, side streets, and
big highways between
the entrances to their homes below
a maze of tunnels, of tracks
beneath the leaves, the pebbles
disruption, chaos, in the turning
the rolling away of the stone
pale citizens of the world of the dark
exposed from under a rock
hide, hide deeper.
