STILL CITY

Vincent Arnold

ree

Not quite still city,  

not quite civil war, 

shops are open,  

trading on the outskirts, 

a train is running,  

never to meet the platform,  

for the central has fallen,  

to the rush of rumor,  

becoming a state more torn, 

than what the hair lines divided.
