Rank red monster and a green eyed sign.

" Be young and shut up"
A red monster
Rank with rust
Rumbles by.
I sit on a low wall
And wonder why.
Afternoon traffic
Frantic and erratic
Ignores me.
A green eyed billboard
Thirsty with provocation
Notices my position
And declares
“560 New Houses!
4.5 Acres of Garden!”
‘At least this land,
Is condemned’
I think.
Sinking before it even set sail.
