The city is so big

Its bridges quake with fear

I know, I have seen at night

The lights sliding from house to house

And trains pass with windows shining

Like a smile full of teeth

I have seen machines eating houses

And stairways walk all by themselves

And elevator doors opening and closing

And people disappear
