DETAILS
Life's pavement is hard and it's concrete gets hot..
Shoe laces stay untied never learning to tie knot...
Lifting up the hood, the heat still burns the skin...
Holding down four corners, its cold out boxed in...
Living off words unwritten, not those many have read...
Shine from what is lived, to say what has not been said...
Looking for hollywood squares, became stars on the block...
Circled in the ex, watching time race against the clock...
Limping through alleys, no wonder the weight stay humble..
Miss no steps, opportunity staring not a chance to stumble...
Lowering the bar, a counter, mentally and physically barred...
Observed, acting old live easy, playing young die hard...
Lining streets, the parade bear witness to hope's float...
Dreams set a sail, martyr to memories, mural we devote...
Landscaping our lives to focus our sight within the scene...
Details need attention, but they are few and far between.
