greyday

by joel abel - Taurus

we are industrious
killers,
if we are nothing else
she said.

she was on
the bed, framed
by the big window,
her skin seemed
electric in contrast
to the grey sky 
behind her.

what?
i asked her.

she waved her hand
across the city outside
the window.
grey sky dissapearing
into grey skyscrapers.
smokestacks a block
away pumping grey
smoke, leeching color
away with coloums of 
smoke.

just look at it.

you heard me.
