Shopping carts running through the streets

Framing pedestrians on suicide missions

Only wanting to get to the other side

Where the concrete’s grayer.

Just another Jacksonville moment

Caught on several surveillance cams

Making sure everyone’s caught

After the fact. Or forgotten.

Not that you can escape on foot

With 875 square miles surrounding

Your every step, taking you towards

Another Publix or fitness center

That could be skipped

By walking.
