Reflections on Skyscrapers and cities

In daylight, beacons of progress to the hopeful.

Torches of guidance to the lost, by night.

Statues unmoving in defiance of gravity.

Behemoths of concrete, my head tilted upward.

Breaking the sky as if to reach Heaven.

Babel's warning in the distance.

Land covered in stone. Nature stifled beneath.

Marches of innovation above. Never sleeping.
