Found everything...
#LostCityBlues
In the moving city,
Along the dark alleys,
Up the one way lifts,
All the fingerless CCTV cameras,
Some lovely ladies calling on me half clad,
A jungle of glass and wires,
Distant airports,
The church, all about Bethlehem,
The mosques, all about Arabia,
The patient-than-me god shrines,
Where heaven came to show off,
Restaurants with lukewarm breakfasts,
I know I have money in every bank,
So I can leave if I don't find rest,
But I know where home is in the city...
... or where the city is at home.
I found everything here, but me.
