Skin like asphalt,
exhaling diesel fumes
diode eyes flicker and see
the blood in these veins are coolant
life = magic = life

the voice is synth and electric
cobbled city spirit amalgation
run like the underground train
fly like a swarm of metal-sparrow
see like the Thousand-Eyed Spider
with lidless hi-tech lenses
watching everyone

you walk these streets
ignorant to the magic
thus ignorant to the life
but sometimes
you ...

sometimes you can hear it
the song of something greater
a sussuration of digital thunder
the anticipation of an unseen audience
whispers in the telephone
faces watching you on the tv
strangers turning around to see you

there is a call
waiting for you now
will you answer it
or
will you let fate do

?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
