Inconvenient Novelty

long forgotten by passerby
she rocks with screams
trembling under rains decent

another faceless blur
in the city painted abstract
an inconvenient novelty
a ghostly shadow

choking on pity
strangled by contempt
nursing fate

she waits...

for the one that will never come
for the dream that has unfurled
for the timer to run out

for her death to be as uneventful as her life
