This Town

By: Stephanie MacDonald

​

This town is filled with voices. 
People here do their own little thing. 
Everyone making all their own choices. 
No one here is attached to a string. 

This town is filled with stillness. 
People here are so sheltered and cold. 
Separation seems a very common illness. 
Actions almost robotically controlled. 

This town is filled with crime. 
People here are violent and slick. 
Being there is a sad waste of time. 
Surviving there would be a magic trick. 

This town is filled with song. 
People here are generous and sweet. 
The friendships lasting all lifelong. 
This would make our souls complete.
