the hands cover
over the mouth
over the eyes
hands clasp around
the heart and hurt
anything trying
to get in from the outside
no information
no explanation
you find yourself
face down
dead town
rusting city
torn down
playgrounds
children hide on the inside
crumbling statues
reveal hidden values
heroes covered over
by moss, acid rain
and ferrous stains
shadowed by the evening lights
