The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

is mankind partitioning
the space between these faceless walls,
our hidden rooms and hallowed halls.

This constant unheard background noise
guarantees our continued poise,
oh greatest glorification -
the sound of civilisation.
