Under the needles called buildings
And below the thread called roads,
They stitched a castle
Out of tins and rags;
Wastes and dusts.
The castle shines to those
Who dwell in there and to the rest
It existed never.
When the sun lits
The creatures of castle crawl
To devour the things above;
And they,
in return,
Come out of light;
Become shadows;
Swallow the others in their castle
When night reigns.
But;
They remain deaf to each other
As always.
As the city spreads its legs,
The castle grows
And shines in its cracks.
