19 | Look, I say---look here--- \ | ||
20 | at this old place \ | ||
21 | where nothing changes. \ | ||
22 | Look at the people \ | ||
23 | who pass by. Look at \ | ||
24 | the trees. The flowers \ | ||
25 | full of wanting: look \ | ||
26 | how full they are with \ | ||
27 | color. Look how they mock \ | ||
28 | us, empty people who \ | ||
29 | must fill themselves \ | ||

38 | stand: they are too \ | ||
39 | tall to see the germ \ | ||
40 | of discontent in us. | ||
