[lightyearsapart]

there's nothing that makes you feel more all right
than hearing sirens go by your window
injury, heart attack, emergency
while you're sitting at your computer screen.
your downtown apartment, cozy and high
so you must look down to see anyone
and there's something happening all the time
even if you're just sitting on your ass
so the next time an ambulance rolls by
you'll be in the middle of everything.
