This city yearns day in and day out
Her heart longs to be touched
Can you hear it?
She’s crying out to us
This city of ours is in need
Her streets rumble with hunger pains
As the sirens wail, she hopes we can hear her desperation
Muscles and bones are aching
She’s been left idle for far too long
Her heat touches our skin as she reminds that she is alive and omnipresent
Her breath cools our fevers and brings us in closer
She aims for unity among her children
In disbelief, these visions of division weaken her and now she knows juxtaposition
For our love, her mouth is watering
Sugar drips from her lips
