Buildings like men,
Towering titans in
This tiny town.
I rest by the river,
Carved into the heartland
Like a child grinding his fingernail
In a sandbox.
I can be a speck on the
Side of these lazy currents,
But beneath those ruddy bricks -
Stacked so carefully
By over zealous primates -
It seems what makes
Them feel so big
Makes me so small.
