Wish You Were Here

This is where we work from wework with a view
look down at the city where busyness is due
watch tiny people not more than a smidge
crossing the street or line up for the bridge
look out at the water and far into the grey
where a ferry’s coming from across the bay
see another’s leaving just about the pier
ev’rybody’s going somewhere, nobody’s staying here.
