descanso

Fire spreads across the coastline
As a grey-red tint is splayed across the sky
The sun doesn't shine on the grids anymore
Or maybe I was right and they never did

As I watched the endless night encroach
I decided I would run away
Just narrowly outrunning the shadow
On the eastbound 10

Ambling up the hill overlooking the valley
I took it all in for what felt like the longest time
All uninterrupted space

I was a kid the first time I saw the lights on the horizon

The world turned nauseous on its axis
But we were all sick of moving in real time
I had another Monica Bellucci dream
And I think I know what it meant this time

When all the venture capitalists are gone
And the opportunists are banished
And the rich are eaten
Will nature reclaim the grid city?

I came back to that hill recently
And it looked like they had built a golf course
And some luxury housing
And there was a Whole Foods on the way

I was a kid the last time I saw the lights on the horizon
